Hi All, Looks like the full expansion of the format of expand("<sfile>") changed sometime between vim 8.1 and 8.2, and as a result it breaks the way some scripts (LaTeX-Box, in particular) get the SID.
While tracing this down I realized that docs (Vim 8.2) say: If you need to get the script number to use in a complicated script, you can use this function: function s:SID() return matchstr(expand('<sfile>'), '<SNR>\zs\d\+\ze_SID$') endfun Given that expand('<SID>') does the same thing, perhaps you can replace/remove the above paragraph?
