VIM Users

So please join - even if you do not have a dedicated vim page. All info on this page might help - even if just to see what environment people are using vim.

VIM Users Page - Hints

Now, what can you put onto your vim page? Well, let us know what you do with it, what you like about it most - whatever.

Matt also has created a menu with the (complete?) character set for ISO-8859. Thus you can enter every character from a menu. This theoretically means that you can operate Vim complety via menu using the mouse.

"The shell setup dynamically creates the environment (EXINIT, VIMINIT, GVIMINIT) in .cshrc (if $TERM was changed). This is a peculiar setup, because I use both vi and vim, and I wanted to have common options in one place."

Environment: My Amiga is a good old A2000, with 1MB RAM. It has a 68030 CPU card at 25MHz with 2MB RAM. Speedwise this is comparable to an Intel386. The screen is a 14" Philips 8833 (TV frequencies). I would upgrade it to a 68040 or 68060, if I would find a cheap CPU card. Would be better to get an A4000 and a better monitor, but the Amiga is a dead-end, I don't want to invest much in it anymore.

My "old" PC is a 100 MHz 486, 32MB RAM, about 7 Gbyte on 4 harddisks. It runs DOS-6.2, Windows-3.11, Windows95, WindowsNT, Linux and OS/2. The screen is 15" (1024x768).

My "new" PC is a 200 MHz AMD K6, 64MB RAM, one 6 Gbyte harddisk. It runs FreeBSD-2.2.1. The screen is 17" (1280x1024). This is my main workhorse now.

I've got a 10MHz Ethernet between the two PCs for easy file access. For the Amiga I need to use 720K floppies (that's why the Amiga distribution files have been cut down now).

Note: Bram is the author of Vim.

The Amiga is my main Development platform, the Linux box is mainly a file server for backups, and CDROM writing. (I do enough unix development at work).
