patch 8.0.0761: options not set properly for a terminal buffer commit https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/1f2903c43109b16594d141a730659317b15f388d Author: Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org> Date: Sun Jul 23 19:51:01 2017 +0200 patch 8.0.0761: options not set properly for a terminal buffer Problem: Options of a buffer for a terminal window are not set properly. Solution: Add "terminal" value for 'buftype'. Make 'buftype' and 'bufhidden' not depend on the quickfix feature. Also set the buffer name and show "running" or "finished" in the window title.

README_mac.txt for version 8.0 of Vim: Vi IMproved.

This file explains the installation of Vim on Macintosh systems.
See "README.txt" for general information about Vim.


To build from sources, like on Unix

1. Get the build tools: "clang" and "make".  These can be installed with the
   "CommandLineTools" package.   If you don't have one, do
	xcode-select --install
   Just like for any software development with OS X.

2. Get the source code.  Best is to use git (which you need to install first),
   see http://www.vim.org/git.php
   Or you can download and unpack the Unix tar archive, see
   http://www.vim.org/download.php

3. Go to the top directory of the source tree, do
	make
	sudo make install
  A newly built vim will be installed under "/usr/local".


If you can't manage to make this work, there is a fallback using Homebrew:

1. Install Homebrew from http://brew.sh/
2. Install latest Vim with:  brew install vim
