Usage

Use it by executing the following Command, or calling the Function.

:Becho[!] {expr} ..

This is almost the same as :echo command.
If there are specific format in the String, it will be colored as highlight.

Depending on the option settings, it automatically displays the formatted contents of DICT and LIST type variables, and prefixes arguments, etc.

If with the bang[!], it will disable them and only do text-coloring.

:Belog[!] {expr} ..

Display the same contents as :Becho, in a specific log-buffer.
This is a substitute command for :echomsg.

Hit the c in log-buffer, will clear messages.
Hit the q in log-buffer, will close the log-buffer window.

CAUTION:

Script local variables (s:var) cannot be used.
If you want to display the value of a script local variable, asign it to temporary variable, etc...

  :let tmp = s:var
  :Becho tmp
