The autoload mechanism in Vim9 was introduced only recently. But I suppose you were relying on the legacy mechanism. The change indeed had bigger impact than I anticipated. But I do think that it is better in the long run. So far you could have an autoload function call anywhere, just use "scriptname#Funcname()". Although this is convenient, it also hides a dependency on another script, which must be present for this to work. Now you need an "import autoload 'scriptname.vim'" and then you can use "scriptname.Funcname()". Now the import, thus the dependency, is explicit. The cost is an extra line. There is one loophole though: When using a legacy function it can use the "scritpname#Funcname()" form, also in a Vim9 script. Perhaps you can use that as a temporary workaround? In a cleanly written Vim9 script you would not define a legacy function. -- If your company is not involved in something called "ISO 9000" you probably have no idea what it is. If your company _is_ involved in ISO 9000 then you definitely have no idea what it is.
