Subject: patch 8.1.0973: pattern with syntax error gives threee error messages
X-Git-Tag: v8.1.0973
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd62512c5595fa1f7a7f2c6ec1a90ea6bde3ad50;p=vim

patch 8.1.0973: pattern with syntax error gives threee error messages

Problem:    Pattern with syntax error gives threee error messages. (Kuang-che
            Wu)
Solution:   Remove outdated internal error.  Don't fall back to other engine
            after an error.
