[fuguesoft]

Specs

• Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 12.10 (bookworm)
• Desktop Environment: GNOME/Mutter
• Terminal Emulator: Kitty
• Shell: fish
• WeeChat Version: 4.4.3

Description

Commands from vimode.py are not being recognized by WeeChat.

Steps to reproduce

Open WeeChat
Join any channel
From normal or insert mode, type :nmap or :<number> where <number> is a
valid line number (e.g. :4)

Expected behavior

I expect to be able to use the commands provided by vimode as I could in WeeChat
3.8. Instead the status buffer tells me that the command is not recognized.

Thank you for your time 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 🙏🏾

Just to clarify, the vi modes and the : command works with say, :h or :ignore but just not for :nmap, or :<number>

I also find that :bd, :bn, :bN, :bp, :write are all unrecognized as well
When I try :w, weechat's default /who command is invoked instead
