[PATCH 1/2] vi: failure to open file is not an error when initialising buffer

Sun Nov 30 20:39:25 UTC 2014


Commit 32afd3a introduced these regressions on the master branch:

Starting vi with no filename on the command line gives the status message
"'(null)' Bad address" instead of "- No file 1/1 100%".

Starting vi with a non-existent file on the command line gives the status
message "'new.txt' No such file or directory" instead of "- new.txt 1/1 100%"
