Thank you! If you read this and realize someone is happy because of your generous hard work, then we can close it now. It works. It just works.

Summary

When using with fzf.vim and vim-ultest, with updatetime=300, fzf commands trigger an error Error: vim-ultest encountered an unknown error on startup, check v:exception due to some issue with the CursorHold event at https://github.com/rcarriga/vim-ultest/blob/0f4c264129f11950bd471043ce3ab70f3c0545dc/plugin/ultest.vim#L399-L402.

Steps to reproduce

1. Using the following minimal vimrc, open some file

   set runtimepath^=~/.vim runtimepath+=~/.vim/after
   let &packpath = &runtimepath
   
   call plug#begin()
   Plug 'antoinemadec/FixCursorHold.nvim'
   Plug 'junegunn/fzf'
   Plug 'junegunn/fzf.vim'
   Plug 'vim-test/vim-test'
   Plug 'rcarriga/vim-ultest', { 'do': ':UpdateRemotePlugins' }
   call plug#end()
   
   set nocompatible
   set updatetime=300
   set cmdheight=2

For some obscure reason, running it with let g:cursorhold_updatetime = 100 breaks https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale.

Increasing updateTime up to 1000ms fixes the problem.

Hey there, thanks for this plugin! I've been using it for a long time to primarily decouple the updatetime setting from CursorHold events. I like to have the CursorHold trigger very often and have it set to 50ms. The README states that this plugin is no longer necessary but it seems from the linked issue that the decoupling is still only provided by this, is that correct?

If so, would you consider rewording the README message to clarify what this still provides vs what is now fixed in core?

This project is missing a license file despite having MIT listed in the README. You can get a template from here if you need one.

When using this plugin in vim (8.2) with airblade/vim-gitgutter I see a message on startup:
No matching autocommands: gitgutter CursorHold

Maybe the plugin needs a conditional for the neovim specific logic? Apologies for my ignorance :)

I just saw the updated README.md that the targeted problem (seems to?) has been resolved(eliminated!) on the master branch. Thanks for your help when the (NeoVim) world is under attack(that bug)! Let me keep my star here, for memory :)

Description

When using with NERDTree and vim-devicons, after opening NERDTree, visual selection in main buffer gets cancelled after ~1s.

Steps to reproduce

set runtimepath^=~/.vim runtimepath+=~/.vim/after
let &packpath = &runtimepath

" vim-plug
call plug#begin()

Plug 'antoinemadec/FixCursorHold.nvim'
Plug 'preservim/nerdtree'
Plug 'ryanoasis/vim-devicons'

call plug#end()

1. nvim -u /path/to/minimal.vim some_file
2. :NERDTree
3. Now in the main buffer, V and select a few lines
4. Wait for 1-2 seconds, the visual selection gets cancelled
