11 To compile Vim yourself you need three archives:
|
|
12 vim-X.X-rt.tar.gz runtime files
|
|
13 vim-X.X-src.tar.gz source files
|
|
14 vim-X.X-extra.tar.gz extra source files
|

|
16 Compilation is recommended, in order to make sure that the correct
|
|
17 libraries are used for your specific system. However, you might not be
|
|
18 able to compile Vim, read more from src/INSTALLvms.txt.
