INTRODUCTION					*lightline-introduction*

The *lightline* plugin is a light and configurable statusline/tabline for Vim.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPIRIT						*lightline-spirit*

	Minimalism
	    The core script is very small.

	Configurability
	    You can create your own component and easily add to the
	    statusline/tabline.

	Orthogonality
	    Any plugin should not change the settings of another plugin.
	    Such plugin-crossing settings should be written by users in
	    .vimrc.

	You might find this plugin is not so useful by default. This plugin
	does not provide the branch information, which is a very basic
	component in existing plugins. The reason is that branch component is
	one of plugin-crossing settings so users should write the settings
	using the APIs of the both plugins. Hospitality makes a plugin messy.
	Good APIs keep a plugin clean.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTIONS						*lightline-option*

	g:lightline				*g:lightline*
		All the options are stored into this global variable.

	g:lightline.active			*g:lightline.active*
	g:lightline.inactive			*g:lightline.inactive*
	g:lightline.tabline			*g:lightline.tabline*
		Dictionaries to specify the statusline/tabline components.
		The components are gathered from either |g:lightline.component|,
		|g:lightline.component_function| or
		|g:lightline.component_expand|.
		Note that right groups of components are stored from right to
		left. The default values are:
>
		let g:lightline.active = {
		    \ 'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ],
		    \           [ 'readonly', 'filename', 'modified' ] ],
		    \ 'right': [ [ 'lineinfo' ],
		    \            [ 'percent' ],
		    \            [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ] }
		let g:lightline.inactive = {
		    \ 'left': [ [ 'filename' ] ],
		    \ 'right': [ [ 'lineinfo' ],
		    \            [ 'percent' ] ] }
		let g:lightline.tabline = {
		    \ 'left': [ [ 'tabs' ] ],
		    \ 'right': [ [ 'close' ] ] }
<
	g:lightline.tab				*g:lightline.tab*
		Dictionaries to specify the components in each tabs.
		The components are gathered from either
		|g:lightline.tab_component| or
		|g:lightline.tab_component_function|.
		The default values are:
>
		let g:lightline.tab = {
		    \ 'active': [ 'tabnum', 'filename', 'modified' ],
		    \ 'inactive': [ 'tabnum', 'filename', 'modified' ] }
<
	g:lightline.component			*g:lightline.component*
		Dictionary for statusline/tabline components.
		The default value is:
>
		let g:lightline.component = {
		    \ 'mode': '%{lightline#mode()}',
		    \ 'absolutepath': '%F',
		    \ 'relativepath': '%f',
		    \ 'filename': '%t',
		    \ 'modified': '%M',
		    \ 'bufnum': '%n',
		    \ 'paste': '%{&paste?"PASTE":""}',
		    \ 'readonly': '%R',
		    \ 'charvalue': '%b',
		    \ 'charvaluehex': '%B',
		    \ 'fileencoding': '%{&fenc!=#""?&fenc:&enc}',
		    \ 'fileformat': '%{&ff}',
		    \ 'filetype': '%{&ft!=#""?&ft:"no ft"}',
		    \ 'percent': '%3p%%',
		    \ 'percentwin': '%P',
		    \ 'spell': '%{&spell?&spelllang:""}',
		    \ 'lineinfo': '%3l:%-2v',
		    \ 'line': '%l',
		    \ 'column': '%c'
		    \ 'close': '%999X X ' }
<
	g:lightline.component_visible_condition		*g:lightline.component_visible_condition*
		Dictionary of boolean expressions for the components.
		Each expression should correspond to the condition each
		component have non-zero length.
		The default value is:
>
		let g:lightline.component_visible_condition = {
		    \ 'modified': '&modified||!&modifiable',
		    \ 'readonly': '&readonly',
		    \ 'paste': '&paste',
		    \ 'spell': '&spell' }
<
		Users are recommended to set this option together with the
		component itself.

	g:lightline.component_function		*g:lightline.component_function*
		Another dictionary for components. This is more convenient
		because the user does not have to set both component and
		component_visible_condition. If a component set to both component and
		component_function, the setting of component_function has priority.
		For example, if you want a component for read-only mark, which
		disappears in help windows:
>
		let g:lightline = {
			\ 'active': {
			\   'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ],
			\             [ 'myreadonly', 'filename', 'modified' ] ],
			\ },
			\ 'component_function': {
			\   'myreadonly': 'LightLineReadonly'
			\ },
			\ }
		function! LightLineReadonly()
			return &ft !~? 'help' && &readonly ? 'RO' : ''
		endfunction
<
	g:lightline.component_expand		*g:lightline.component_expand*
		Another dictionary for components. You can create a component
		which has a special color. For example, error components or
		warning components. The functions should return one of:
			+ a string
			+ an array of three elements:
				[[ left ], [ middle ], [ right ]]
		The component in this dictionary has priority over
		|g:lightline.component| and |g:lightline.component_function|.
		Note that the return string is appended to the statusline
		string without any conversion. So you should replace all the
		% signs with %%. Otherwise, lightline will be disabled in case
		the text has a % sign.
		(example: return substitute(text, '%', '%%', 'g')).
		See |lightline-component-expansion| for more detail.
>
		let g:lightline.component_expand = {
		    \ 'tabs': 'lightline#tabs' }
<
	g:lightline.component_type		*g:lightline.component_type*
		A dictionary to specify the types for components in
		|g:lightline.component_expand|. The types are used to specify
		the color. Specifically, the type raw is used to specify a
		component which should not be wrapped by item group: %(...%).
		The default value is: >

		let g:lightline.component_type = {
		    \ 'tabs': 'tabsel',
		    \ 'close': 'raw' }
<
	g:lightline.tab_component		*g:lightline.tab_component*
		A dictionary for components in one tab.
		The default value is: >

		let g:lightline.tab_component = {}
<
	g:lightline.tab_component_function	*g:lightline.tab_component_function*
		Another dictionary for components in one tab.
		A function specified as a tab component takes one argument:
		the tab [count].
		The default value is:
>
		let g:lightline.tab_component_function = {
		      \ 'filename': 'lightline#tab#filename',
		      \ 'modified': 'lightline#tab#modified',
		      \ 'readonly': 'lightline#tab#readonly',
		      \ 'tabnum': 'lightline#tab#tabnum' }
<
	g:lightline.colorscheme			*g:lightline.colorscheme*
		The colorscheme for lightline.vim.
		Currently, wombat, solarized, powerline, jellybeans, Tomorrow,
		Tomorrow_Night, Tomorrow_Night_Blue, Tomorrow_Night_Eighties,
		PaperColor, seoul256, landscape and 16color are available.
		The default value is:
>
		let g:lightline.colorscheme = 'default'
<
		Note that the default colorscheme is exactly the same as the
		powerline theme.

	g:lightline.mode_map			*g:lightline.mode_map*
		A dictionary of names for the modes. The keys are the return
		values of |mode()|.
		The default value is:
>
		let g:lightline.mode_map = {
		    \ 'n' : 'NORMAL',
		    \ 'i' : 'INSERT',
		    \ 'R' : 'REPLACE',
		    \ 'v' : 'VISUAL',
		    \ 'V' : 'V-LINE',
		    \ "\<C-v>": 'V-BLOCK',
		    \ 'c' : 'COMMAND',
		    \ 's' : 'SELECT',
		    \ 'S' : 'S-LINE',
		    \ "\<C-s>": 'S-BLOCK',
		    \ 't': 'TERMINAL',
		    \ }
<
		When you search a word, you get into the command mode. But if
		you want to keep the mode indicator as 'NORMAL', add >
		let g:lightline = { 'mode_map': { 'c': 'NORMAL' } }
<		to your .vimrc.

	g:lightline.separator			*g:lightline.separator*
	g:lightline.subseparator		*g:lightline.subseparator*
		Dictionaries to store separators.
		The default value is
>
		let g:lightline.separator = { 'left': '', 'right': '' }
		let g:lightline.subseparator = { 'left': '|', 'right': '|' }
<
	g:lightline.tabline_separator			*g:lightline.tabline_separator*
	g:lightline.tabline_subseparator		*g:lightline.tabline_subseparator*
		Dictionaries to store separators for the tabline.
		The default value is
>
		let g:lightline.tabline_separator = g:lightline.separator
		let g:lightline.tabline_subseparator = g:lightline.subseparator
<
	g:lightline.enable			*g:lightline.enable*
		A dictionary to specify which feature is turned on.
		The default value is
>
		let g:lightline.enable = {
		    \ 'statusline': 1,
		    \ 'tabline': 1
		    \ }
<

==============================================================================
FONT						*lightline-font*
You can use the patched font you used for |vim-powerline| and |powerline|.

The patched fonts for |powerline| are available at
https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline-fonts

A tutorial to create a patched font for |vim-powerline| is available at
https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-powerline/tree/develop/fontpatcher

If you have installed the patched font for |powerline|, following settings look
nice.
>
	let g:lightline = {
		\ 'component': {
		\   'lineinfo': ' %3l:%-2v',
		\ },
		\ 'component_function': {
		\   'readonly': 'LightLineReadonly',
		\   'fugitive': 'LightLineFugitive'
		\ },
		\ 'separator': { 'left': '', 'right': '' },
		\ 'subseparator': { 'left': '', 'right': '' }
		\ }
	function! LightLineReadonly()
		return &readonly ? '' : ''
	endfunction
	function! LightLineFugitive()
		if exists('*fugitive#head')
			let branch = fugitive#head()
			return branch !=# '' ? ''.branch : ''
		endif
		return ''
	endfunction
<
If you have installed the patched font for |vim-powerline|, following settings
look nice.
>
	let g:lightline = {
		\ 'component': {
		\   'lineinfo': '⭡ %3l:%-2v',
		\ },
		\ 'component_function': {
		\   'readonly': 'LightLineReadonly',
		\   'fugitive': 'LightLineFugitive'
		\ },
		\ 'separator': { 'left': '⮀', 'right': '⮂' },

			let branch = fugitive#head()
			return branch !=# '' ? '⭠ '.branch : ''
		endif
		return ''
	endfunction
<
If the statusline does not correctly show the special characters, use the
unicode numbers. For |powerline| font users:
>
		\ 'separator': { 'left': "\ue0b0", 'right': "\ue0b2" },
		\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\ue0b1", 'right': "\ue0b3" }
<
For |vim-powerline| font users:
>
		\ 'separator': { 'left': "\u2b80", 'right': "\u2b82" },
		\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\u2b81", 'right': "\u2b83" }

==============================================================================
COMPONENT EXPANSION				*lightline-component-expansion*
You can create components, which have specific colors. This section gives an
example using |syntastic|.

If you want to add the |syntastic| flag to the statusline, an easy example is:
>
	" Example A
	let g:lightline = {
	      \ 'active': {
	      \   'right': [ [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ],
	      \              [ 'percent' ],
	      \              [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
	      \ },
	      \ 'component_function': {
	      \   'syntastic': 'SyntasticStatuslineFlag',
	      \ }
	      \ }
	let g:syntastic_mode_map = { 'mode': 'passive',
	      \                      'active_filetypes': ['c', 'cpp'] }
<
However, the color of the syntastic component is the same as the lineinfo
component.

In order to change the syntastic component more outstanding, you have to use
|g:lightline.component_expand|. See the following example:
>
	" Example B
	let g:lightline = {
	      \ 'active': {
	      \   'right': [ [ 'syntastic', 'lineinfo' ],
	      \              [ 'percent' ],
	      \              [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
	      \ },
	      \ 'component_expand': {
	      \   'syntastic': 'SyntasticStatuslineFlag',
	      \ },
	      \ 'component_type': {
	      \   'syntastic': 'error',
	      \ }
	      \ }
	let g:syntastic_mode_map = { 'mode': 'passive' }
	augroup AutoSyntastic
	  autocmd!
	  autocmd BufWritePost *.c,*.cpp call s:syntastic()
	augroup END
	function! s:syntastic()
	  SyntasticCheck
	  call lightline#update()
	endfunction
<
In order to understand the above codes, you firstly should know how the
colorschemes work in lightline.vim. Open the following file.
		autoload/lightline/colorscheme/powerline.vim
The colorscheme is created by one dictionary: s:p (abbreviation for palette).
See the value of s:p.normal.right.
>
	let s:p.normal.right = [ ['gray5', 'gray10'],
	      \                  ['gray9', 'gray4'],
	      \                  ['gray8', 'gray2'] ]
<
This array corresponds to the structure of g:lightline.active.right. Recall
the example A.
>
	" Example A
	let g:lightline.active.right = [ [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ],
	      \                          [ 'percent' ],
	      \                          [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
<
The colors are ([fgcolor, bgcolor):
>
	(0) [ 'lineinfo', 'syntastic' ]                   ---  s:p.normal.right[0] = ['gray5', 'gray10']
	(1) [ 'percent' ]                                 ---  s:p.normal.right[1] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
	(2) [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ]  ---  s:p.normal.right[2] = ['gray8', 'gray2']
<
Recall the example B.
>
	" Example B
	let g:lightline.active.right = [ [ 'syntastic', 'lineinfo' ],
	      \                          [ 'percent' ],
	      \                          [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ] ]
<
If a component is specified in |g:lightline.component_expand|, lightline.vim
expands the components before setting to statusline/tabline. In this example,
the syntastic component is expanded using the |SyntasticStatuslineFlag| function.
This function returns a {string}. Let us call it `syntastic_flag`.
>
	let syntastic_flag = SyntasticStatuslineFlag()
<
The syntastic component is now expanded, so it go up to one component group.
The type of the syntastic component is error, and the palette has error
colors, the result is:
>
	" Expanded result of Example B
	(error) [ syntastic_flag ]                            ---  s:p.normal.error[0] = ['gray9', 'brightestred']
	(0)     [ 'lineinfo' ]                                ---  s:p.normal.right[0] = ['gray5', 'gray10']
	(1)     [ 'percent' ]                                 ---  s:p.normal.right[1] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
	(2)     [ 'fileformat', 'fileencoding', 'filetype' ]  ---  s:p.normal.right[2] = ['gray8', 'gray2']
<
Thus the syntastic component has the red color.


Another example for |g:lightline.component_expand| is the tabs component.
Actually, the expand feature is created for the tabs component.
>
	let g:lightline.tabline.left = [ [ 'tabs' ] ]
	let g:lightline.component_expand = {
	    \ 'tabs': 'lightline#tabs' }
<
Create three tabs and select the middle tab. Then execute
>
	echo lightline#tabs()
	" [['%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}'],
	"  ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}'],
	"  ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T']]
<
It returns an array of three elements. The expanded result is:
>
	" Expanded result of tabline
	(0)      ['%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}']    ---  s:p.tabline.left[0] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
	(tabsel) ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}']    ---  s:p.tabline.tabsel[0] = ['gray9', 'gray1']
	(0)      ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T']  ---  s:p.tabline.left[0] = ['gray9', 'gray4']
<
If the tabline components are
>
	let g:lightline.tabline.left = [ [ 'A', 'B', 'tabs', 'C', 'D' ] ]
<
then the expanded result is:
>
	(0)      ['A', 'B', '%1T%{lightline#onetab(1,0)}']    ---  s:p.tabline.left[0]
	(tabsel) ['%2T%{lightline#onetab(2,1)}']              ---  s:p.tabline.tabsel[0]
	(0)      ['%3T%{lightline#onetab(3,0)}%T', 'C', 'D']  ---  s:p.tabline.left[0]
<
In summary, when a function in |g:lightline.component_expand| returns an
array of three elements, the first element and the last element remains as a
part of existing component group. And the middle element goes up to new
component group.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COLORSCHEME					*lightline-colorscheme*
You can configure the colorscheme of lightline. For example,
>
	let g:lightline = {
		\ 'colorscheme': 'wombat',
		\ }
<
The colorscheme files are found in the directory

	lightline.vim/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/

In each file, one global variable is defined. For example, in the landscape.vim
file, you see
>
	let g:lightline#colorscheme#landscape#palette = s:p
<
In the file, the colors for the landscape colorscheme are defined. For example,
>
	let s:p.normal.left = [ ['#0000ff', '#ffffff', 21, 231, 'bold' ], [ '#ffffff', '#0000ff', 231, 21 ] ]
<
defines the colors for the components on the left hand side, in normal mode.
>
	let s:p.tabline.tabsel = [ [ '#dadada', '#121212', 253, 233 ] ]
<
defines the colors for the selected tab in tabline. In general, each palette
follows the following style:
>
	let s:p.{mode}.{where} = [ [ {guifg}, {guibg}, {cuifg}, {cuibg} ], ... ]
<


Now, you can create your own colorscheme for lightline. Create a
yourcolorscheme.vim at

	{one of the paths in &rtp}/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/yourcolorscheme.vim

The following code gives the minimal palette definition for lightline.
>
	let s:p = {'normal': {}}
	let s:p.normal.left = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.normal.right = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.normal.middle = [ [ ... ] ]
	let g:lightline#colorscheme#yourcolorscheme#palette = s:p
<
And if you add the colorscheme configuration to your .vimrc(_vimrc),
>
	let g:lightline = {
		\ 'colorscheme': 'yourcolorscheme',
		\ }
<
you find it possible to change the lightline colors as you wish.

Moreover, if you want to change the colors based on the mode of vim, write
something like this:
>
	let s:p.insert.left = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.insert.right = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.replace.left = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.replace.right = [ [ ... ] ]
	...
	...
<
For expanded components, you are recommended to define the following two
colors.
>
	let s:p.normal.error = [ [ ... ] ]
	let s:p.normal.warning = [ [ ... ] ]
<
For the complete list of components the color of which you should define in
your colorscheme, see the colorscheme files in lightline.

It is sometimes painful to write all the colors for both gui and cui.
Actually, lightline has some useful functions for writing colorschemes. For
example, see
	lightline.vim/autoload/lightline/colorscheme/Tomorrow_Night.vim
this colorscheme is defined using only gui color numbers. And convert to the
normal colorscheme form using:
>
	let g:lightline#colorscheme#Tomorrow_Night#palette = lightline#colorscheme#fill(s:p)
<
This function fills the cui colors for a palette which has only gui colors, or
vice versa. However, note that using the convenient function sources an
additional Vim script file (autoload/lightline/colorscheme.vim), which causes
a little slow down. If you want to avoid this situation, write all the colors
as done in autoload/lightline/colorscheme/landscape.vim; firstly create the
colorscheme using the fill function, and see the result, in a sense, the
compiled version of your colorscheme.

In order to define your own component:
>
	let g:lightline = {
		\ 'active': {
		\   'left': [ [ 'mode', 'paste' ], [ 'myfilename' ] ]
		\ },
		\ 'component_function': {
		\   'myfilename': 'LightLineFilename',
		\   'myreadonly': 'LightLineReadonly',
		\   'mymodified': 'LightLineModified',
		\ }
		\ }
	function! LightLineFilename()
		return ('' != LightLineReadonly() ? LightLineReadonly() . ' ' : '') .
		      \ (&ft == 'vimfiler' ? vimfiler#get_status_string() :
		      \  &ft == 'unite' ? unite#get_status_string() :
		      \ '' != expand('%:t') ? expand('%:t') : '[No Name]') .
		      \ ('' != LightLineModified() ? ' ' . LightLineModified() : '')
	endfunction
	function! LightLineReadonly()
		return &ft !~? 'help' && &readonly ? 'RO' : ''

		If you have installed this plugin using NeoBundle:

			1. Execute |:NeoBundleUpdate|.

		If you have installed this plugin using vim-plug:

			1. Execute |:PlugUpdate|.

Problem 3:					*lightline-problem-3*
	How to uninstall this plugin.

		If you have installed this plugin manually:

			1. Remove all the lightline.*s under $VIM.

		If you have installed this plugin using Vundle:

			1. Remove the :Plugin 'itchyny/lightline.vim'

			configuration from your .vimrc(_vimrc).
			2. Update with |:PlugClean|.

Problem 4:					*lightline-problem-4*
	Cool statuslines appear only on |:vsp|.

		Add the following setting to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
			set laststatus=2
<
Problem 5:					*lightline-problem-5*
	The statusline does not seem to be correctly colored.

		Add
>
			export TERM=xterm-256color
<
		to your .*shrc and add
>
			if !has('gui_running')
			  set t_Co=256
			endif
<
		to your .vimrc(_vimrc).

Problem 6:					*lightline-problem-6*
	How to install a patched font.

		There are two kinds of patched fonts:

		+ The patched fonts for |vim-powerline|
		(https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-powerline):
		follow the guide https://github.com/Lokaltog/vim-powerline/tree/develop/fontpatcher
		+ The patched fonts for |powerline|
		(https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline):
		download from https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline-fonts

Problem 7:					*lightline-problem-7*
	Right triangles do not stick to the right components with patched
	font.

		Remove the following setting from your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
			set ambiwidth=double
<
		If you want to keep this setting, try the patched font for
		|vim-powerline|.

Problem 8:					*lightline-problem-8*
	Triangles do not appear. Triangles look weird.

		If the triangles do not appear (but you get some spaces or
		weird characters like <bf> or ¿), firstly try adding
>
			scriptencoding utf-8
			set encoding=utf-8
<
		to the head of your .vimrc(_vimrc). Still you have weird
		characters, use the unicode numbers. For |powerline| font
		users:
>
		\ 'separator': { 'left': "\ue0b0", 'right': "\ue0b2" },
		\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\ue0b1", 'right': "\ue0b3" }
<
		For |vim-powerline| font users:
>
		\ 'separator': { 'left': "\u2b80", 'right': "\u2b82" },
		\ 'subseparator': { 'left': "\u2b81", 'right': "\u2b83" }
<
		The full list of unicode numbers for fancy characters is shown
		in |lightline-problem-9|.

		If the triangles are shown in appropriate characters but the
		colors do not look correctly, see the following.
		If you are using iTerm2, change the following settings.

		    + set Profiles>Colors>Minimum contrast to the Lowest.
		    + set Profiles>Window>Transparency to the Opaquest.

		For other terminals, this weird-triangle problem will be
		resolved by disabling transparency or contrast adjustment.

Problem 9:					*lightline-problem-9*
	Where can I find the list of all the cool characters for patched fonts?

				Default		powerline	vim-powerline
	separator.left		''		'' (\ue0b0)		'⮀' (\u2b80)
	separator.right		''		'' (\ue0b2)		'⮂' (\u2b82)
	subseparator.left	'|'		'' (\ue0b1)		'⮁' (\u2b81)
	subseparator.right	'|'		'' (\ue0b3)		'⮃' (\u2b83)
	branch symbol		--		'' (\ue0a0)		'⭠' (\u2b60)
	readonly symbol		--		'' (\ue0a2)		'⭤' (\u2b64)
	linecolumn symbol	--		'' (\ue0a1)		'⭡' (\u2b81)

Problem 10:					*lightline-problem-10*
	Cool statusline disappears on |unite|, |vimfiler| and |vimshell|
	buffers.

		Add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
		let g:unite_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
		let g:vimfiler_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
		let g:vimshell_force_overwrite_statusline = 0
<
Problem 11:					*lightline-problem-11*
	Cool statusline disappears in |CtrlP|, |Tagbar| buffers.

		Add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
		let g:ctrlp_status_func = {
		  \ 'main': 'CtrlPStatusFunc_1',
		  \ 'prog': 'CtrlPStatusFunc_2',
		  \ }
		function! CtrlPStatusFunc_1(focus, byfname, regex, prev, item, next, marked)
		  return lightline#statusline(0)
		endfunction
		function! CtrlPStatusFunc_2(str)
		  return lightline#statusline(0)
		endfunction

		let g:tagbar_status_func = 'TagbarStatusFunc'
		function! TagbarStatusFunc(current, sort, fname, ...) abort
		  return lightline#statusline(0)
		endfunction
<
		See |lightline-powerful-example| for more cool settings for
		these plugins.

Problem 12:					*lightline-problem-12*
	How to make the plus sign red like |powerline|?

		Use the following setings.
>
		let g:lightline = {
		      \ 'component': {
		      \   'modified': '%#ModifiedColor#%{LightLineModified()}',
		      \ }
		      \ }
		function! LightLineModified()
		  let map = { 'V': 'n', "\<C-v>": 'n', 's': 'n', 'v': 'n', "\<C-s>": 'n', 'c': 'n', 'R': 'n'}
		  let mode = get(map, mode()[0], mode()[0])
		  let bgcolor = {'n': [240, '#585858'], 'i': [31, '#0087af']}
		  let color = get(bgcolor, mode, bgcolor.n)
		  exe printf('hi ModifiedColor ctermfg=196 ctermbg=%d guifg=#ff0000 guibg=%s term=bold cterm=bold',
			\ color[0], color[1])
		  return &modified ? '+' : &modifiable ? '' : '-'
		endfunction
<
		It's surely complicated. There's no easy API to do a thing
		like this. But it means that your request does not match
		the spirit of lightline.

Problem 13:					*lightline-problem-13*
	How to change the lightline colorscheme on the fly.

		Add the following settings to your .vimrc(_vimrc).
>
		augroup LightLineColorscheme
		  autocmd!
		  autocmd ColorScheme * call s:lightline_update()
		augroup END
		function! s:lightline_update()
		  if !exists('g:loaded_lightline')
		    return
		  endif
		  try
		    if g:colors_name =~# 'wombat\|solarized\|landscape\|jellybeans\|seoul256\|Tomorrow'
		      let g:lightline.colorscheme =
		            \ substitute(substitute(g:colors_name, '-', '_', 'g'), '256.*', '', '') .
		            \ (g:colors_name ==# 'solarized' ? '_' . &background : '')
		      call lightline#init()
		      call lightline#colorscheme()
		      call lightline#update()
		    endif
		  catch
		  endtry
		endfunction
<
Problem 14:					*lightline-problem-14*
	The 'E541' warning appears on the right hand side.
	Many components disable the statusline of lightline.

		The number of items in statusline/tabline is limited to 80
		(see |E541|). You cannot register too much components.

Problem 15:					*lightline-problem-15*
	Do not deal with the tabline.
	Do not use the fancy separators in the tabline.

		You can disable the tabline feature of lightline.vim using:
>
		let g:lightline = {
			\ 'enable': { 'tabline': 0 },
			\ }
<
		If you don't like the separators in the tabline, use:
>
		let g:lightline = {
			\ 'tabline_separator': { 'left': "", 'right': "" },
			\ 'tabline_subseparator': { 'left': "", 'right': "" },
			\ }
<
Problem 16:					*lightline-problem-16*
	When changed the component to a function component to an expanding
	component, the statusline of lightline is sometimes disabled.

		When you changed from
>
			\ 'component_function': {
			\   'my': 'My',
			\ }
<
		to
>
			\ 'component_expand': {
			\   'my': 'My',
			\ }
<
		the statusline of lightline is disabled unexpectedly.
		In such a case, the text returned by 'My' function may include
		the '%' character. Replace all the '%' signs with '%%'.
>
		function My()
		  ...
		  return substitute(text, '%', '%%', 'g')
		endfunction
<
Problem 17:					*lightline-problem-17*
	Found a bug of this plugin.
	Got many errors while using this plugin.
	Vim hangs while using this plugin.
	Want this plugin to be more configurable.
	This troubleshooting is not helpful.
