7 *Amiga*
|
|
8 This file contains the particularities for the Amiga version of Vim.
|
|
9 There is also a section specifically for |MorphOS| below.
|
|
10
|
|
11 Installation on the Amiga:
|
|
12 - Assign "VIM:" to the directory where the Vim "doc" directory is. Vim will
|
|
13 look for the file "VIM:doc/help.txt" (for the help command).
|
|
14 Setting the environment variable $VIM also works. And the other way around:
|
|
15 when $VIM used and it is not defined, "VIM:" is used.
|
|
16 - With DOS 1.3 or earlier: Put "arp.library" in "libs:". Vim must have been
|
|
17 compiled with the |+ARP| feature enabled. Make sure that newcli and run are
|
|
18 in "C:" (for executing external commands).
|
|
19 - Put a shell that accepts a command with "-c" (e.g. "Csh" from Fish disk
|
|
20 624) in "c:" or in any other directory that is in your search path (for
|
|
21 executing external commands).
|
|
22
|
|
23 If you have sufficient memory you can avoid startup delays by making Vim and
|
|
24 csh resident with the command "rez csh vim". You will have to put
|
|
25 "rezlib.library" in your "libs:" directory. Under 2.0 you will need rez
|
|
26 version 0.5.
|
|
27
|
|
28 If you do not use digraphs, you can save some memory by recompiling without
|
|
29 the |+digraphs| feature. If you want to use Vim with other terminals you can
|
|
30 recompile with the TERMCAP option. Vim compiles with Manx 5.x and SAS 6.x.
|
|
31 See the makefiles and feature.h.
|
|
32
|
11
|
33 If you notice Vim crashes on some files when syntax highlighting is on, or
|
|
34 when using a search pattern with nested wildcards, it might be that the stack
|
|
35 is too small. Try increasing the stack size. In a shell use the Stack
|
|
36 command before launching Vim. On the Workbench, select the Vim icon, use the
|
|
37 workbench "Info" menu and change the Stack field in the form.
|
|
38
|

|
39 If you want to use different colors set the termcap codes:
|
|
40 t_mr (for inverted text)
|
|
41 t_md (for bold text)
|
|
42 t_me (for normal text after t_mr and t_md)
|
|
43 t_so (for standout mode)
|
|
44 t_se (for normal text after t_so)
|
|
45 t_us (for underlined text)
|
|
46 t_ue (for normal text after t_us)
|
|
47 t_ZH (for italic text)
|
|
48 t_ZR (for normal text after t_ZH)
|
|
49
|
|
50 Standard ANSI escape sequences are used. The codes are:
|
|
51 30 grey char 40 grey cell >0 grey background 0 all attributes off
|
|
52 31 black char 41 black cell >1 black background 1 boldface
|
|
53 32 white char 42 white cell >2 white background 2 faint
|
|
54 33 blue char 43 blue cell >3 blue background 3 italic
|
|
55 34 grey char 44 grey cell >4 grey background 4 underscore
|
|
56 35 black char 45 black cell >5 black background 7 reverse video
|
|
57 36 white char 46 white cell >6 white background 8 invisible
|
|
58 37 blue char 47 blue cell >7 blue background
|
|
59
|
|
60 The codes with '>' must be the last. The cell and background color should be
|
|
61 the same. The codes can be combined by separating them with a semicolon. For
|
|
62 example to get white text on a blue background: >
|
|
63 :set t_me=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m
|
|
64 :set t_se=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m
|
|
65 :set t_ue=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m
|
|
66 :set t_ZR=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m
|
|
67 :set t_md=^V<Esc>[1;32;43;>3m
|
|
68 :set t_mr=^V<Esc>[7;32;43;>3m
|
|
69 :set t_so=^V<Esc>[0;31;43;>3m
|
|
70 :set t_us=^V<Esc>[4;32;43;>3m
|
|
71 :set t_ZH=^V<Esc>[3;32;43;>3m
|
|
72
|
|
73 When using multiple commands with a filter command, e.g. >
|
|
74 :r! echo this; echo that
|
|
75 Only the output of the last command is used. To fix this you have to group the
|
|
76 commands. This depends on the shell you use (that is why it is not done
|
|
77 automatically in Vim). Examples: >
|
|
78 :r! (echo this; echo that)
|
|
79 :r! {echo this; echo that}
|
|
80
|
|
81 Commands that accept a single file name allow for embedded spaces in the file
|
|
82 name. However, when using commands that accept several file names, embedded
|
|
83 spaces need to be escaped with a backslash.

86 Vim for MorphOS *MorphOS*

|
|

|
|
90 For the latest info about the MorphOS version:

94 Problems ~
|
|
95
|
|
96 There are a couple of problems which are not MorphOS related but more Vim and
|
|
97 UN*X related. When starting up Vim in ram: it complains with a nag requester
|
|
98 from MorphOS please simply ignore it. Another problem is when running Vim as
|
|
99 is some plugins will cause a few problems which you can ignore as well.
|
|
100 Hopefully someone will be fixing it over the time.
|
|
101
|
|
102 To pass all these problems for now you can either run:
|
|
103
|
|
104 vim <file to be edited>
|
|
105
|
|
106 or if you want to run Vim plain and enjoy the motion of Helpfiles etc. it then
|
|
107 would be better to enter:
|
|
108
|
|
109 vim --noplugins <of course you can add a file>
|
|
110
|
|
111
|
|
112 Installation ~
|
|
113
|
|
114 1) Please copy the binary 'VIM' file to c:
|
|
115 2) Get the Vim runtime package from:
|
|
116
|
|
117 ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/amiga/vim62rt.tgz
|
|
118
|
|
119 and unpack it in your 'Apps' directory of the MorphOS installation. For me
|
|
120 this would create following directory hierarchy:
|
|
121
|
|
122 MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62/...
|
|
123
|
|
124 3) Add the following lines to your s:shell-startup (Important!).
|
|
125
|
|
126 ;Begin VIM
|
|
127 Set VIM=MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62
|
|
128 Assign HOME: ""
|
|
129 ;End VIM
|
|
130
|
|
131 4) Copy the '.vimrc' file to s:
|
|
132
|
|
133 5) There is also a file named 'color-sequence' included in this archive. This
|
|
134 will set the MorphOS Shell to show ANSI colors. Please copy the file to s:
|
|
135 and change the s:shell-startup to:
|
|
136
|
|
137 ;Begin VIM
|
|
138 Set VIM=MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62
|
|
139 Assign HOME: ""
|
|
140 Execute S:Color-Sequence
|
|
141 Cls
|
|
142 ;End VIM
|
|
