-READ THIS: Before creating a pull request, please consider the following first.
-
-* The most important thing you can do is write tests. Code without tests
-  probably doesn't work, and will almost certainly stop working later on. Pull
-  requests without tests probably won't be accepted, although there are some
-  exceptions.
-* Read the Contributing guide linked above first.
-* If you are adding a new linter, remember to update the README.md file and
-  doc/ale.txt first.
-* If you add or modify a function for converting error lines into loclist items
-  that ALE can work with, please add Vader tests for them. Look at existing
-  tests in the test/handler directory, etc.
-* If you add or modify a function for computing a command line string for
-  running a command, please add Vader tests for that.
-* Generally try and cover anything with Vader tests, although some things just
-  can't be tested with Vader, or at least they can be hard to test. Consider
-  breaking up your code so that some parts can be tested, and generally open up
-  a discussion about it.
-* Have fun!

 languages and tools which have been correctly installed,
 this plugin will send the contents of your text buffers to a variety of

 options ALE offers, consult `:help ale-options` for global options and `:help
 ale-linter-options` for options specified to particular linters.

-<a name="usage-fixing"></a>
-
-### 2.ii Fixing
-
-ALE can fix files with the `ALEFix` command. Functions need to be configured
-for different filetypes with the `g:ale_fixers` variable. For example, the
-following code can be used to fix JavaScript code with ESLint:
-
-```vim
-" Put this in vimrc or a plugin file of your own.
-" After this is configured, :ALEFix will try and fix your JS code with ESLint.
-let g:ale_fixers = {
-\   'javascript': ['eslint'],
-\}
-
-" Set this setting in vimrc if you want to fix files automatically on save.
-" This is off by default.
-let g:ale_fix_on_save = 1
-```
-
-The `:ALEFixSuggest` command will suggest some supported tools for fixing code,
-but fixers can be also implemented with functions, including lambda functions
-too. See `:help ale-fix` for detailed information.

-
-### 2.iii Completion
-
-ALE offers some support for completion via hijacking of omnicompletion while you
-type. All of ALE's completion information must come from Language Server
-Protocol linters, or similar protocols. At the moment, completion is only
-supported for TypeScript code with `tsserver`, when `tsserver` is enabled. You
-can enable completion like so:
-
-```vim
-" Enable completion where available.
-let g:ale_completion_enabled = 1
-```
-
-See `:help ale-completion` for more information.

-
-### 2.iv Go To Definition
-
-ALE supports jumping to the definition of words under your cursor with the
-`:ALEGoToDefinition` command using any enabled LSP linters and `tsserver`.
-

 ## 3. Installation

 To install this plugin, you should use one of the following methods.
 For Windows users, replace usage of the Unix `~/.vim` directory with
-`%USERPROFILE%\vimfiles`, or another directory if you have configured
+`%USERPROFILE%\_vim`, or another directory if you have configured
 Vim differently. On Windows, your `~/.vimrc` file will be similarly
 stored in `%USERPROFILE%\_vimrc`.

-<a name="standard-installation"></a>
-
-### 3.i. Installation with Vim package management
-
-In Vim 8 and NeoVim, you can install plugins easily without needing to use
-any other tools. Simply clone the plugin into your `pack` directory.
-
-#### Vim 8 on Unix
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/git-plugins/start
-git clone https://github.com/w0rp/ale.git ~/.vim/pack/git-plugins/start/ale
-```
-
-#### NeoVim on Unix
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/git-plugins/start
-git clone https://github.com/w0rp/ale.git ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/git-plugins/start/ale
-```
-
-#### Vim 8 on Windows
-
-```bash
-# Run these commands in the "Git for Windows" Bash terminal
-mkdir -p ~/vimfiles/pack/git-plugins/start
-git clone https://github.com/w0rp/ale.git ~/vimfiles/pack/git-plugins/start/ale
-```
-
-#### Generating Vim help files
-
-You can add the following line to your vimrc files to generate documentation
-tags automatically, if you don't have something similar already, so you can use
-the `:help` command to consult ALE's online documentation:
-
-```vim
-" Put these lines at the very end of your vimrc file.
-
-" Load all plugins now.
-" Plugins need to be added to runtimepath before helptags can be generated.
-packloadall
-" Load all of the helptags now, after plugins have been loaded.
-" All messages and errors will be ignored.
-silent! helptags ALL

-### 5.iv. How can I change or disable the highlights ALE uses?
-
-ALE's highlights problems with highlight groups which link to `SpellBad`,
-`SpellCap`, `error`, and `todo` groups by default. The characters that are
-highlighted depend on the linters being used, and the information provided to
-ALE.
-
-Highlighting can be disabled completely by setting `g:ale_set_highlights` to
-`0`.
-
-```vim
-" Set this in your vimrc file to disabling highlighting
-let g:ale_set_highlights = 0
-```
-
-You can control all of the highlights ALE uses, say if you are using a different
-color scheme which produces ugly highlights. For example:
-
-```vim
-highlight ALEWarning ctermbg=DarkMagenta

+### 5.iv. How can I show errors or warnings in my statusline?

-[vim-airline](https://github.com/vim-airline/vim-airline) integrates with ALE
-for displaying error information in the status bar. If you want to see the
-status for ALE in a nice format, it is recommended to use vim-airline with ALE.
-The airline extension can be enabled by adding the following to your vimrc:
+You can use `ALEGetStatusLine()` to integrate ALE into vim statusline.
+To enable it, you should have in your `statusline` settings

 ```vim
-" Set this. Airline will handle the rest.
-let g:airline#extensions#ale#enabled = 1
+%{ALEGetStatusLine()}
 ```

-If you don't want to use vim-airline, you can implement your own statusline
-function without adding any other plugins. ALE provides a function for counting
-the number of problems for this purpose, named `ale#statusline#Count`.
+When errors are detected a string showing the number of errors will be shown.
+You can customize the output format using the global list `g:ale_statusline_format` where:

-Say you want to display all errors as one figure, and all non-errors as another
-figure. You can do the following:
+- The 1st element is for errors
+- The 2nd element is for warnings
+- The 3rd element is for when no errors are detected
+
+e.g

 ```vim
-function! LinterStatus() abort
-    let l:counts = ale#statusline#Count(bufnr(''))
-
-    let l:all_errors = l:counts.error + l:counts.style_error
-    let l:all_non_errors = l:counts.total - l:all_errors
-
-    return l:counts.total == 0 ? 'OK' : printf(
-    \   '%dW %dE',
-    \   all_non_errors,
-    \   all_errors
-    \)
-endfunction
-
-set statusline=%{LinterStatus()}

-<a name="faq-c-configuration"></a>
-
-### 5.xiv. How can I configure my C or C++ project?
-
-The structure of C and C++ projects varies wildly from project to project, with
-many different build tools being used for building them, and many different
-formats for project configuration files. ALE can run compilers easily, but
-ALE cannot easily detect which compiler flags to use.
-
-Some tools and build configurations can generate
-[compile_commands.json](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/JSONCompilationDatabase.html)
-files. The `cppcheck`, `clangcheck` and `clangtidy` linters can read these
-files for automatically determining the appropriate compiler flags to use.
-
-For linting with compilers like `gcc` and `clang`, and with other tools, you
-will need to tell ALE which compiler flags to use yourself. You can use
-different options for different projects with the `g:ale_pattern_options`
-setting.  Consult the documentation for that setting for more information.
-`b:ale_linters` can be used to select which tools you want to run, say if you
-want to use only `gcc` for one project, and only `clang` for another.
-
-You may also configure buffer-local settings for linters with project-specific
-vimrc files. [local_vimrc](https://github.com/LucHermitte/local_vimrc) can be
-used for executing local vimrc files which can be shared in your project.
-
-<a name="faq-buffer-configuration"></a>
-
-### 5.xv. How can I configure ALE differently for different buffers?
-
-ALE offers various ways to configure which linters or fixers are run, and
-other settings. For the majority of ALE's settings, they can either be
-configured globally with a `g:` variable prefix, or for a specific buffer
-with a `b:` variable prefix. For example, you can configure a Python ftplugin
-file like so.
-
-```vim
-" In ~/.vim/ftplugin/python.vim
-
-" Check Python files with flake8 and pylint.
-let b:ale_linters = ['flake8', 'pylint']
-" Fix Python files with autopep8 and yapf.
-let b:ale_fixers = ['autopep8', 'yapf']
-" Disable warnings about trailing whitespace for Python files.
-let b:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace = 0
-```
-
-For configuring files based on regular expression patterns matched against the
-absolute path to a file, you can use `g:ale_pattern_options`.
-
-```vim
-" Do not lint or fix minified files.
-let g:ale_pattern_options = {
-\ '\.min\.js$': {'ale_linters': [], 'ale_fixers': []},
-\ '\.min\.css$': {'ale_linters': [], 'ale_fixers': []},
-\}
-" If you configure g:ale_pattern_options outside of vimrc, you need this.
-let g:ale_pattern_options_enabled = 1
-```
-
-Buffer-local variables for settings always override the global settings.

Adriaan Zonnenberg	1f7679e619	Remove 'col' from linters where it is hardcoded to 1 (#434 ) * Remove 'col' from linters where it is hardcoded to 1 When 'col' is 1, the first column will get highlighted for no reason. It should be 0 (which is the default). In the scalac linter there was also a check about the outcome of `stridx`. It would set l:col to 0 if it was -1, and then it uses `'col': l:col + 1` to convert the outcome of `stridx` to the actual column number. This will make 'col' equals 1 when there is no match. We can remove the check because `-1 + 1 = 0`. * Remove outdated comments about vcol vcol was added as a default, and the loclists that follow these comments do not contain 'vcol' anymore Conflicts: ale_linters/elixir/dogma.vim	2017-03-31 19:01:10 +01:00
