是否有相当于set wildignore用于忽略具有不可打印字符的文件？

Question

Currently I ignore certain file extensions, but I think it would be quite useful if I could have vim ignore binary files (where we might define binary as files with nonprintable characters) when doing tab completion.

I am running on Linux rather than windows, so just matching .exe is not useful.

No, there's no such setting, and I also don't see how it could be useful. Especially on Unix, many files with the executable bit set are actually scripts (Shell, Perl, Python, etc.), which are perfectly suitable for editing with Vim.

For custom :command s, you could build such a completion yourself ( -complete=custom argument, using executable() for testing), but to apply this to built-in commands, you'd have to patch Vim's source code.
