Given I have a group of commands such as:
augroup MyGroup
autocmd CursorMoved * silent call MyCommandOne()
augroup END
I want to disable all the autocommands in MyGroup for a time and then re-enable it later.
Is there anything I can do with the group? Specifically, is there a way to disable the whole group at once? If not, what can I do to disable individual commands?
Looking at the help, I only see a few options:
augroup!
will delete the whole group: I don't think this is right since I will want to re-enable it again. (But maybe there's a way to easily redefine the group again?):noautocmd
will only disable the callbacks for a one-off invocation of a command. (And it disables all autocmds, not specified ones)eventignore
addresses the event binding, not the command: it sounds like it disables all bound commands for a given event, not just one command or a group I can specify.
How is this done?
