syntax errors with line wrapping

[dseomn]

With this text and textwidth set to 80:

foo = dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + sd

Typing another letter results in:

foo = dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf + dfgdfgdgf +
sdf

Which is a SyntaxError.

I think a simple fix would be to add this:

setlocal formatoptions-=t

Maybe there's some way to detect if there are unclosed parentheses or other syntax that would allow line wrapping, and only wrap if it wouldn't be a SyntaxError? Not sure it's worth the additional complication though, even if that is possible.

Thanks for catching this. Your fix makes sense to me–feel free to open a PR for it.

Unclosed parenthesis detection in Vimscript alone sounds a bit scary. Maybe it could be implemented robustly using Treesitter, but I don't know how the Vim maintainers feel about Neovim exclusive features being kept in the Vim repo.

Mind adding a license file first? I know this is a trivial change, but I still try not to contribute to unlicensed repos.

I don't know either, and I also don't use neovim. formatoptions seems nice and simple, and probably good enough.
