| 32 .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 33 .B Vim | |
| 34 is a text editor that is upwards compatible to Vi. | |
| 35 It can be used to edit all kinds of plain text. | |
| 36 It is especially useful for editing programs. | |
| 37 .PP | |
| 38 There are a lot of enhancements above Vi: multi level undo, | |
| 39 multi windows and buffers, syntax highlighting, command line | |
| 40 editing, filename completion, on-line help, visual selection, etc.. | |
| 41 See ":help vi_diff.txt" for a summary of the differences between | |
| 42 .B Vim | |
| 43 and Vi. | |
| 44 .PP | |
| 45 While running | |
| 46 .B Vim | |
| 47 a lot of help can be obtained from the on-line help system, with the ":help" | |
| 48 command. | |
| 49 See the ON-LINE HELP section below. | |
| 50 .PP | |
| 51 Most often | |
| 52 .B Vim | |
| 53 is started to edit a single file with the command | |
| 54 .PP | |
| 55 vim file | |
| 56 .PP | |
| 57 More generally | |
| 58 .B Vim | |
| 59 is started with: | |
| 60 .PP | |
| 61 vim [options] [filelist] | |
| 62 .PP | |
| 63 If the filelist is missing, the editor will start with an empty buffer. | |
| 64 Otherwise exactly one out of the following four may be used to choose one or | |
| 65 more files to be edited. | |
| 66 .TP 12 | |
| 67 file .. | |
| 68 A list of filenames. | |
| 69 The first one will be the current file and read into the buffer. | |
| 70 The cursor will be positioned on the first line of the buffer. | |
| 71 You can get to the other files with the ":next" command. | |
| 216 | 72 To edit a file that starts with a dash, precede the filelist with "\-\-". |
| 7 | 73 .TP |
| 216 | 74 \- |
| 7 | 75 The file to edit is read from stdin. Commands are read from stderr, which |
| 76 should be a tty. | |
| 77 .TP | |
| 216 | 78 \-t {tag} |
| 7 | 79 The file to edit and the initial cursor position depends on a "tag", a sort |
| 80 of goto label. | |
| 81 {tag} is looked up in the tags file, the associated file becomes the current | |
| 82 file and the associated command is executed. | |
| 83 Mostly this is used for C programs, in which case {tag} could be a function | |
| 84 name. | |
| 85 The effect is that the file containing that function becomes the current file | |
| 86 and the cursor is positioned on the start of the function. | |
| 810 | 87 See ":help tag\-commands". |
| 7 | 88 .TP |
| 216 | 89 \-q [errorfile] |
| 7 | 90 Start in quickFix mode. |
| 91 The file [errorfile] is read and the first error is displayed. | |
| 92 If [errorfile] is omitted, the filename is obtained from the 'errorfile' | |
| 93 option (defaults to "AztecC.Err" for the Amiga, "errors.err" on other | |
| 94 systems). | |
| 95 Further errors can be jumped to with the ":cn" command. | |
| 96 See ":help quickfix". | |
| 97 .PP | |
| 98 .B Vim | |
| 99 behaves differently, depending on the name of the command (the executable may | |
| 100 still be the same file). | |
| 101 .TP 10 | |
| 102 vim | |
| 103 The "normal" way, everything is default. | |
| 104 .TP | |
| 105 ex | |
| 106 Start in Ex mode. | |
| 107 Go to Normal mode with the ":vi" command. | |
| 216 | 108 Can also be done with the "\-e" argument. |

112 Can also be done with the "\-R" argument. |
| 7 | 113 .TP |
| 114 gvim gview | |
| 115 The GUI version. | |
| 116 Starts a new window. | |
| 216 | 117 Can also be done with the "\-g" argument. |
| 7 | 118 .TP |
| 119 evim eview | |
| 120 The GUI version in easy mode. | |
| 121 Starts a new window. | |
| 216 | 122 Can also be done with the "\-y" argument. |
| 7 | 123 .TP |
| 124 rvim rview rgvim rgview | |
| 125 Like the above, but with restrictions. It will not be possible to start shell | |
| 126 commands, or suspend | |
| 127 .B Vim. | |
| 216 | 128 Can also be done with the "\-Z" argument. |
| 7 | 129 .SH OPTIONS |
| 130 The options may be given in any order, before or after filenames. | |
| 131 Options without an argument can be combined after a single dash. | |
| 132 .TP 12 | |
| 133 +[num] | |
| 134 For the first file the cursor will be positioned on line "num". | |
| 135 If "num" is missing, the cursor will be positioned on the last line. | |
| 136 .TP | |
| 137 +/{pat} | |
| 6530 | 138 For the first file the cursor will be positioned in the line with the |
| 7 | 139 first occurrence of {pat}. |
| 810 | 140 See ":help search\-pattern" for the available search patterns. |

145 {command} will be executed after the first file has been read. |
| 7 | 146 {command} is interpreted as an Ex command. |
| 147 If the {command} contains spaces it must be enclosed in double quotes (this | |
| 148 depends on the shell that is used). | |
| 21499 | 149 Example: vim "+set si" main.c |
| 7 | 150 .br |
| 216 | 151 Note: You can use up to 10 "+" or "\-c" commands. |
| 7 | 152 .TP |
| 216 | 153 \-S {file} |
| 7 | 154 {file} will be sourced after the first file has been read. |
| 216 | 155 This is equivalent to \-c "source {file}". |
| 156 {file} cannot start with '\-'. | |
| 157 If {file} is omitted "Session.vim" is used (only works when \-S is the last | |
| 7 | 158 argument). |
| 159 .TP | |
| 216 | 160 \-\-cmd {command} |
| 161 Like using "\-c", but the command is executed just before | |
| 7 | 162 processing any vimrc file. |
| 216 | 163 You can use up to 10 of these commands, independently from "\-c" commands. |
| 7 | 164 .TP |
| 216 | 165 \-A |
| 7 | 166 If |
| 167 .B Vim | |
| 168 has been compiled with ARABIC support for editing right-to-left | |
| 169 oriented files and Arabic keyboard mapping, this option starts | |
| 170 .B Vim | |
| 171 in Arabic mode, i.e. 'arabic' is set. Otherwise an error | |
| 172 message is given and | |
| 173 .B Vim | |
| 174 aborts. | |
| 175 .TP | |
| 216 | 176 \-b |
| 7 | 177 Binary mode. |
| 178 A few options will be set that makes it possible to edit a binary or | |
| 179 executable file. | |
| 180 .TP | |
| 216 | 181 \-C |
| 7 | 182 Compatible. Set the 'compatible' option. |
| 183 This will make | |
| 184 .B Vim | |
| 185 behave mostly like Vi, even though a .vimrc file exists. | |
| 186 .TP | |
| 216 | 187 \-d |
| 7 | 188 Start in diff mode. |
| 24911 | 189 There should between two to eight file name arguments. |
| 7 | 190 .B Vim |
| 191 will open all the files and show differences between them. | |
| 192 Works like vimdiff(1). | |
| 193 .TP | |
| 216 | 194 \-d {device} |
| 7 | 195 Open {device} for use as a terminal. |
| 196 Only on the Amiga. | |
| 197 Example: | |
| 198 "\-d con:20/30/600/150". | |
| 199 .TP | |
| 216 | 200 \-D |
| 7 | 201 Debugging. Go to debugging mode when executing the first command from a |
| 202 script. | |
| 203 .TP | |
| 216 | 204 \-e |
| 7 | 205 Start |
| 206 .B Vim | |
| 207 in Ex mode, just like the executable was called "ex". | |
| 208 .TP | |
| 216 | 209 \-E |
| 7 | 210 Start |
| 211 .B Vim | |
| 212 in improved Ex mode, just like the executable was called "exim". | |
| 213 .TP | |
| 216 | 214 \-f |
| 7 | 215 Foreground. For the GUI version, |
| 216 .B Vim | |
| 217 will not fork and detach from the shell it was started in. | |
| 218 On the Amiga, | |
| 219 .B Vim | |
| 220 is not restarted to open a new window. | |
| 221 This option should be used when | |
| 222 .B Vim | |
| 223 is executed by a program that will wait for the edit | |
| 224 session to finish (e.g. mail). | |
| 225 On the Amiga the ":sh" and ":!" commands will not work. | |
| 226 .TP | |
| 216 | 227 \-\-nofork |
| 7 | 228 Foreground. For the GUI version, |
| 229 .B Vim | |
| 230 will not fork and detach from the shell it was started in. | |
| 231 .TP | |
| 216 | 232 \-F |
| 7 | 233 If |
| 234 .B Vim | |
| 235 has been compiled with FKMAP support for editing right-to-left | |
| 236 oriented files and Farsi keyboard mapping, this option starts | |
| 237 .B Vim | |
| 238 in Farsi mode, i.e. 'fkmap' and 'rightleft' are set. | |
| 239 Otherwise an error message is given and | |
| 240 .B Vim | |
| 241 aborts. | |
| 242 .TP | |
| 216 | 243 \-g |
| 7 | 244 If |
| 245 .B Vim | |
| 246 has been compiled with GUI support, this option enables the GUI. | |
| 247 If no GUI support was compiled in, an error message is given and | |
| 248 .B Vim | |
| 249 aborts. | |
| 250 .TP | |
| 216 | 251 \-h |
| 7 | 252 Give a bit of help about the command line arguments and options. |
| 253 After this | |
| 254 .B Vim | |
| 255 exits. | |
| 256 .TP | |
| 216 | 257 \-H |
| 7 | 258 If |
| 259 .B Vim | |
| 260 has been compiled with RIGHTLEFT support for editing right-to-left | |
| 261 oriented files and Hebrew keyboard mapping, this option starts | |
| 262 .B Vim | |
| 263 in Hebrew mode, i.e. 'hkmap' and 'rightleft' are set. | |
| 264 Otherwise an error message is given and | |
| 265 .B Vim | |
| 266 aborts. | |
| 267 .TP | |
| 216 | 268 \-i {viminfo} |
| 17758 | 269 Specifies the filename to use when reading or writing the viminfo file, |
| 7 | 270 instead of the default "~/.viminfo". |
| 271 This can also be used to skip the use of the .viminfo file, by giving the name | |
| 272 "NONE". | |
| 273 .TP | |
| 216 | 274 \-L |
| 275 Same as \-r. | |
| 7 | 276 .TP |
| 216 | 277 \-l |
| 7 | 278 Lisp mode. |
| 279 Sets the 'lisp' and 'showmatch' options on. | |
| 280 .TP | |
| 216 | 281 \-m |
| 7 | 282 Modifying files is disabled. |
| 283 Resets the 'write' option. | |
| 284 You can still modify the buffer, but writing a file is not possible. | |
| 285 .TP | |
| 216 | 286 \-M |
| 7 | 287 Modifications not allowed. The 'modifiable' and 'write' options will be unset, |
| 288 so that changes are not allowed and files can not be written. Note that these | |
| 289 options can be set to enable making modifications. | |
| 290 .TP | |
| 216 | 291 \-N |
| 17758 | 292 No-compatible mode. Resets the 'compatible' option. |
| 7 | 293 This will make |
| 294 .B Vim | |
| 295 behave a bit better, but less Vi compatible, even though a .vimrc file does | |
| 296 not exist. | |
| 297 .TP | |
| 216 | 298 \-n |
| 7 | 299 No swap file will be used. |
| 300 Recovery after a crash will be impossible. | |
| 301 Handy if you want to edit a file on a very slow medium (e.g. floppy). | |
| 302 Can also be done with ":set uc=0". | |
| 303 Can be undone with ":set uc=200". | |
| 304 .TP | |
| 216 | 305 \-nb |
| 7 | 306 Become an editor server for NetBeans. See the docs for details. |
| 307 .TP | |
| 216 | 308 \-o[N] |
| 7 | 309 Open N windows stacked. |
| 310 When N is omitted, open one window for each file. | |
| 311 .TP | |
| 216 | 312 \-O[N] |
| 7 | 313 Open N windows side by side. |
| 314 When N is omitted, open one window for each file. | |
| 315 .TP | |
| 802 | 316 \-p[N] |
| 317 Open N tab pages. | |
| 318 When N is omitted, open one tab page for each file. | |
| 319 .TP | |
| 216 | 320 \-R |
| 7 | 321 Read-only mode. |
| 322 The 'readonly' option will be set. | |

323 You can still edit the buffer, but will be prevented from accidentally |
| 7 | 324 overwriting a file. |
| 325 If you do want to overwrite a file, add an exclamation mark to the Ex command, | |
| 326 as in ":w!". | |
| 12559 | 327 The \-R option also implies the \-n option (see above). |
| 7 | 328 The 'readonly' option can be reset with ":set noro". |
| 329 See ":help 'readonly'". | |
| 330 .TP | |
| 216 | 331 \-r |
| 7 | 332 List swap files, with information about using them for recovery. |
| 333 .TP | |
| 216 | 334 \-r {file} |
| 7 | 335 Recovery mode. |
| 336 The swap file is used to recover a crashed editing session. | |
| 337 The swap file is a file with the same filename as the text file with ".swp" | |
| 338 appended. | |
| 339 See ":help recovery". | |
| 340 .TP | |
| 216 | 341 \-s |
| 342 Silent mode. Only when started as "Ex" or when the "\-e" option was given | |
| 343 before the "\-s" option. | |
| 7 | 344 .TP |
| 216 | 345 \-s {scriptin} |
| 7 | 346 The script file {scriptin} is read. |
| 347 The characters in the file are interpreted as if you had typed them. | |
| 348 The same can be done with the command ":source! {scriptin}". | |
| 349 If the end of the file is reached before the editor exits, further characters | |
| 350 are read from the keyboard. | |
| 351 .TP | |
| 216 | 352 \-T {terminal} |
| 7 | 353 Tells |
| 354 .B Vim | |
| 355 the name of the terminal you are using. | |
| 356 Only required when the automatic way doesn't work. | |

357 Should be a terminal known to |
| 7 | 358 .B Vim |
| 359 (builtin) or defined in the termcap or terminfo file. | |
| 360 .TP | |
| 216 | 361 \-u {vimrc} |
| 7 | 362 Use the commands in the file {vimrc} for initializations. |
| 363 All the other initializations are skipped. | |
| 364 Use this to edit a special kind of files. | |
| 365 It can also be used to skip all initializations by giving the name "NONE". | |
| 366 See ":help initialization" within vim for more details. | |
| 367 .TP | |
| 216 | 368 \-U {gvimrc} |
| 7 | 369 Use the commands in the file {gvimrc} for GUI initializations. |
| 370 All the other GUI initializations are skipped. | |
| 371 It can also be used to skip all GUI initializations by giving the name "NONE". | |
| 810 | 372 See ":help gui\-init" within vim for more details. |
| 7 | 373 .TP |
| 216 | 374 \-V[N] |
| 7 | 375 Verbose. Give messages about which files are sourced and for reading and |
| 376 writing a viminfo file. The optional number N is the value for 'verbose'. | |
| 377 Default is 10. | |
| 378 .TP | |
| 216 | 379 \-v |
| 7 | 380 Start |
| 381 .B Vim | |
| 382 in Vi mode, just like the executable was called "vi". This only has effect | |
| 383 when the executable is called "ex". | |
| 384 .TP | |
| 216 | 385 \-w {scriptout} |
| 7 | 386 All the characters that you type are recorded in the file |
| 387 {scriptout}, until you exit | |
| 388 .B Vim. | |
| 216 | 389 This is useful if you want to create a script file to be used with "vim \-s" or |
| 7 | 390 ":source!". |
| 391 If the {scriptout} file exists, characters are appended. | |
| 392 .TP | |
| 216 | 393 \-W {scriptout} |
| 394 Like \-w, but an existing file is overwritten. | |
| 7 | 395 .TP |

| 216 | 403 \-y |
| 7 | 404 Start |
| 405 .B Vim | |

| 410 .TP | |
| 216 | 411 \-Z |
| 7 | 412 Restricted mode. Works like the executable starts with "r". |
| 413 .TP | |
| 216 | 414 \-\- |
| 7 | 415 Denotes the end of the options. |
| 416 Arguments after this will be handled as a file name. | |
| 216 | 417 This can be used to edit a filename that starts with a '\-'. |
| 7 | 418 .TP |
| 24468 | 419 \-\-clean |
| 420 Do not use any personal configuration (vimrc, plugins, etc.). Useful to see if | |
| 421 a problem reproduces with a clean Vim setup. | |
| 422 .TP | |
| 216 | 423 \-\-echo\-wid |
| 33 | 424 GTK GUI only: Echo the Window ID on stdout. |
| 7 | 425 .TP |

| 216 | 433 \-\-noplugin |
| 434 Skip loading plugins. Implied by \-u NONE. | |
| 7 | 435 .TP |
| 216 | 436 \-\-remote |
| 7 | 437 Connect to a Vim server and make it edit the files given in the rest of the |
| 438 arguments. If no server is found a warning is given and the files are edited | |
| 439 in the current Vim. | |
| 440 .TP | |
| 216 | 441 \-\-remote\-expr {expr} |
| 7 | 442 Connect to a Vim server, evaluate {expr} in it and print the result on stdout. |
| 443 .TP | |
| 216 | 444 \-\-remote\-send {keys} |
| 7 | 445 Connect to a Vim server and send {keys} to it. |
| 446 .TP | |
| 216 | 447 \-\-remote\-silent |
| 448 As \-\-remote, but without the warning when no server is found. | |

| 539 Most of | |
| 540 .B Vim | |
| 541 was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help from others. | |

| 544 .br | |
| 545 .B Vim | |
| 546 is based on Stevie, worked on by: Tim Thompson, | |
| 547 Tony Andrews and G.R. (Fred) Walter. | |
| 548 Although hardly any of the original code remains. | |
| 549 .SH BUGS | |
| 550 Probably. | |
| 551 See ":help todo" for a list of known problems. | |
| 552 .PP | |
| 553 Note that a number of things that may be regarded as bugs by some, are in fact | |
| 554 caused by a too-faithful reproduction of Vi's behaviour. | |
| 555 And if you think other things are bugs "because Vi does it differently", | |
| 556 you should take a closer look at the vi_diff.txt file (or type :help | |
| 557 vi_diff.txt when in Vim). | |
| 558 Also have a look at the 'compatible' and 'cpoptions' options. |
