Subject: patch 8.2.4007: session does not restore help buffer properly
X-Git-Tag: v8.2.4007
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8e7d9db32b53ca2b1cb7570d2042860bcd1e943f;p=vim

patch 8.2.4007: session does not restore help buffer properly

Problem:    Session does not restore help buffer properly when "options' is
            missing from 'sessionoptions'.
Solution:   Use a ":help" command to create the help window. (closes #9475,
            closes #9458, closes #9472)
