Incompatibility with `company-mode`

[sooheon]

I am getting input lock with the following message when a company-mode popup appears with suggestions with vim-empty-lines-mode enabled.

Company: Front-end company-pseudo-tooltip-unless-just-one-frontend error "Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)" on command post-command

Steps to reproduce:
In any .el file, turn on both company and vim-empty-lines modes, type any prefix to a completion anywhere other than the trailing line.

Additionally, typing in the trailing line has its own set of issues:
Expected:

Actual:

Instead of the company-mode popup appearing under the word, it appears at start of line, and any further input appears below that, not appended to the cursor.

The first problem seems to be caused by a bug in company-mode and I have opened an issue there (company-mode/company-mode#274).

The second one seems to be caused by company-mode trying to insert the completion window between the two propertized strings at the end of the buffer. I think this is my fault, but I will have to take a closer look at it.

this does not seem to be happening anymore.

The first bug is fixed, the second one I can still reproduce with emacs -Q and only evil, company, and vim-empty-lines enabled.

@sooheon, try @hchbaw's fork in the thb branch.

I also noticed some company mode issues in the thb branch...
