not able to write NR window to a file?

in NR window, I want to write the content to a file, but nothing happened...
is this expected?

I think so. I think you need to use :NRNoSyncOnWrite to make it write like an ordinary buffer. See the help:

Lines 130 to 137 in e027db9

    
                                                               *:NRNoSyncOnWrite* *:NRN* 
        
           :NRNoSyncOnWrite 
        
           :NRN                        Disable synching the buffer content back to the 
        
                                       original buffer when writing. When set, the 
        
                                       narrowed buffer behaves like an ordinary buffer 
        
                                       that you can write in the filesystem.                
        
                                       Note: You can still use |:WidenRegion| to write 
        
                                       the changes back to the original buffer.

thanks for confirming the issue.Is it possible the default behavior can be change in such a way that when write without a file name it syncs to the original buffer, otherwise just do the normal file write, which maybe is more convenient?

Sorry, I am not planning to make this change.

	:NRNoSyncOnWrite :NRN
	:NRNoSyncOnWrite
	:NRN Disable synching the buffer content back to the
	original buffer when writing. When set, the
	narrowed buffer behaves like an ordinary buffer
	that you can write in the filesystem.
	Note: You can still use \|:WidenRegion\| to write
	the changes back to the original buffer.
