#27 Vim9 script implementation of the indent script

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: dkearns

Translating the indent script to Vim9 script appears to give an at least three fold improvement in performance. Given that indenting is generally slow this is an appreciable improvement when reindenting large files.

Neovim doesn't currently support Vim9 script. There is some work progressing in this area but it's still unclear whether it will eventually be merged. So both the legacy and Vim9 versions would need to be included to support both editors.

Would you be interested in including a Vim9 script version either as a replacement for or alongside the current legacy script version?

I recently learned that NeoVim has support for Language Server Protocol which is an advantage for Ada (using Ada Language Server). So dropping NeoVim might not be an option. Mind you the Alire version of GNAT comes without gnatprove so ALS probably only works for Gnat-Pro users.

No, ALS doesn't need gnatprove. And gnatprove is also available in community GNAT.

But the community GNAT has been deprecated in favour of Alire. Understandable as Alire is very easy to install and use. But no gnatprove and no gnatpp:

which is a bit of a bummer.

but you are assuming the omission was on purpose? It seems like a mistake to me, my understanding was that the alire crate was meant to just copy all of a normal GNAT installation; shall we see if they accept a PR to add them back in?
