1 README_ami.txt for version 7.2 of Vim: Vi IMproved. |
| 7 | 2 |
| 3 This file explains the installation of Vim on Amiga systems. | |
| 4 See README.txt for general information about Vim. | |

| 7 Unpack the distributed files in the place where you want to keep them. It is | |
| 8 wise to have a "vim" directory to keep your vimrc file and any other files you | |
| 9 change. The distributed files go into a subdirectory. This way you can | |
| 10 easily upgrade to a new version. For example: | |
| 11 | |
| 12 dh0:editors/vim contains your vimrc and modified files | |
| 13 dh0:editors/vim/vim54 contains the Vim version 5.4 distributed files | |
| 14 dh0:editors/vim/vim55 contains the Vim version 5.5 distributed files | |
| 15 | |
| 16 You would then unpack the archives like this: | |
| 17 | |
| 18 cd dh0:editors | |
| 19 tar xf t:vim60bin.tar | |
| 20 tar xf t:vim60rt.tar | |
| 21 | |
| 22 Set the $VIM environment variable to point to the top directory of your Vim | |
| 23 files. For the above example: | |
| 24 | |
| 25 set VIM=dh0:editors/vim | |
| 26 | |
| 27 Vim version 5.4 will look for your vimrc file in $VIM, and for the runtime | |
| 28 files in $VIM/vim54. See ":help $VIM" for more information. | |
| 29 | |
| 30 Make sure the Vim executable is in your search path. Either copy the Vim | |
| 31 executable to a directory that is in your search path, or (preferred) modify | |
| 32 the search path to include the directory where the Vim executable is. |
