Thanks for supplying this information. I wasn't aware of the python code writing in a different encoding than the system default. This indeed needs to be solved, and I will...

Yeah, some formatters could deal with that I think. Just curious, is there a specific reason you don't want to format the rest of the file?

The problem we're facing here is that we have to make clear which formatters need the entire file when in visual mode, and which formatters only need the selected text.

Ah, I thought you meant automatic recognition by vim-autoformat, which would then fallback to passing the entire text (with the range parameters). I'm gonna think about it for a bit,...

Yes, we could do this. But we would need to make a distinction between "ranged definitions" and "normal definitions" to make this work correctly and fluently. Given a formatter, if...

What is the location in which the executable resides? If there is no single executable called `remark`, then you have to specify a custom formatter command yourself. You can look...

I guess we could investigate under what circumstances the top of the file is added to the jumplist and then remove it from the jumplist, something like that.

I don't think we should overwrite that vim-docs entry, as it still provides valuable information. Vim-autoformat does not obsolete the builtin functionality, it kind of extends it. That being said,...

Cool! If you want, you could update the definition in defaults.vim and do a PR.
