Keep horizontal position about vim-lastplace HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll take a look and see if/how this can be done.

from vim-lastplace.

I just took a look at this today, and the horizontal and vertical positions are indeed maintained correctly already. I tested this with Vim 7.4.1689 on a ubuntu-server virtual machine.

@sobrinho can you replicate your issue with a clean vim install? If so, please re-open this issue. Thanks!

I run into a similar issue and this is what I found. Tested on nvim 0.5 and vim 8.2 (2815)

1. If the last position isn't near the end of the file, the plugin goes through this path and horizontal position will be kept
   

   vim-lastplace/plugin/vim-lastplace.vim

   Line 54 in d522829

   execute "normal! g`\""

2. If the last position is near the end of the file, the plugin goes through this path and it always jump to the start of the line
   

   vim-lastplace/plugin/vim-lastplace.vim

   Line 68 in d522829

   execute "normal! \G'\"\<c-e>"

Even if I change line 68 the same way line 54 does, it still jump to the start of the line

execute "normal! g`\""
