Gist just saying You dont have configured github account

[favetelinguis]

What can I do to find the error when gist only says You dont have github account configured?

I have done the follwoing:
Install web-api and gist with vundle
Run git --global github.user=... and git --gloab github.token=...
And created .gist-vim and put token=... but still gist just tells me I dont have github accound configured.

I get the same error when trying to run gist -a

Not sure what more i can try...

[mattn]

try to remove ~/.gist-vim.

[favetelinguis]

Makes no difference.

What message do you get from below?

:echo g:github_user

What response do you get from below?

:echo substitute(s:system('git config --get github.user'), "\n", '', '')

[favetelinguis]

First one: nothing is returned

Secound one:
E15: Invalid expression: substitute(s:system('git config --get github.user'), "\n", '','')
E120: Using not in a script context: s:system
E116: Invalid arguments for function substitute(s:system('git config --get github.user'), "\n", ''
,'')

[mattn]

Ah, sorry. try this instead.

:echo substitute(system('git config --get github.user'), "\n", '','')

[favetelinguis]

That did show my github account name!?!

[mattn]

Yes, you will see your account name because it's given from https://github.com/mattn/gist-vim/blob/master/autoload/gist.vim#L39

So the error https://github.com/mattn/gist-vim/blob/master/autoload/gist.vim#L719 couldn't be displayed.

[favetelinguis]

What might be the reason im not seeing the account name in the firs example?

Removed by another plugin.

EDIT °2
Very sorry. Forgot to mention that I'm running nvim 0.1.3

I've got the same error here and some things don't appear clear to me:

@mattn you asked @favetelinguis to perform in ex mode, a function's call that we can find in line 39 of the script:
substitute(s:system('git config --get github.user'), "\n", '', '')
which gave an error (like for me). You put on the fault of the s: and, thus you asked to remove it and run again, which resulted in the following function's call that was just fine (like for me):
substitute(system('git congit --get github.user'), "\n", '', '').

My question is why keeping the failed function's call in the source code instead of replacing it by the working one?

Also @mattn I really didn't understand this reply of yours

EDIT
I added this modification to the script and it seems to work just fine.

What error do you get from git config --get github.user ?

[tomibennett]

None

[mattn]

okay, but you must get error code. try to see echo $? on unix, echo %ERRORLEVEL% on windows.

[tomibennett]

Sorry I wasn't clear. It gaves me what I wanted: my username
$> git config --get github.user
mahloun
$> cat ~/.gitconfig
[...]
[github]
  user = mahloun
[...]

[mattn]

And do you mean that you get always error with system("git config --get github.user"). Right?
