| 7 *unix* *Unix* | |
| 8 This file contains the particularities for the Unix version of Vim. | |
| 9 | |
| 10 For compiling Vim on Unix see "INSTALL" and "Makefile" in the src directory. | |
| 11 | |
| 12 The default help file name is "/usr/local/lib/vim/help.txt" | |
| 13 The files "$HOME/.vimrc" and "$HOME/.exrc" are used instead of "s:.vimrc" and | |
| 237 | 14 "s:.exrc". Additionally "/usr/local/etc/vimrc" is used first. |
| 7 | 15 If "/usr/local/share" exists it is used instead of "/usr/local/lib". |
| 16 | |
| 17 Temporary files (for filtering) are put in "/tmp". If you want to place them | |
| 18 somewhere else, set the environment variable $TMPDIR to the directory you | |
| 19 prefer. | |
| 20 | |
| 21 With wildcard expansion you can use '~' (home directory) and '$' | |
| 22 (environment variable). | |
| 23 | |
| 24 *fork* *spoon* | |
| 25 For executing external commands fork()/exec() is used when possible, otherwise | |
| 26 system() is used, which is a bit slower. The output of ":version" includes | |
| 27 |+fork| when fork()/exec() is used, |+system()| when system() is used. This | |
| 28 can be changed at compile time. | |
| 237 | 29 (For forking of the GUI version see |gui-fork|.) |
| 7 | 30 |
| 31 Because terminal updating under Unix is often slow (e.g. serial line | |
| 32 terminal, shell window in suntools), the 'showcmd' and 'ruler' options | |
| 237 | 33 are default off. If you have a fast terminal, try setting them on. You might |
| 7 | 34 also want to set 'ttyfast'. |
| 35 | |
| 36 When using Vim in an xterm the mouse clicks can be used by Vim by setting | |
| 237 | 37 'mouse' to "a". If there is access to an X-server gui style copy/paste will |
| 7 | 38 be used and visual feedback will be provided while dragging with the mouse. |
| 39 If you then still want the xterm copy/paste with the mouse, press the shift | |
| 40 key when using the mouse. See |mouse-using|. Visual feedback while dragging | |
| 41 can also be achieved via the 'ttymouse' option if your xterm is new enough. | |
| 42 | |
| 43 *terminal-colors* | |
| 44 To use colors in Vim you can use the following example (if your terminal | |
| 45 supports colors, but "T_Co" is empty or zero): > | |
| 46 :set t_me=^[[0;1;36m " normal mode (undoes t_mr and t_md) | |
| 47 :set t_mr=^[[0;1;33;44m " reverse (invert) mode | |
| 48 :set t_md=^[[1;33;41m " bold mode | |
| 49 :set t_se=^[[1;36;40m " standout end | |
| 50 :set t_so=^[[1;32;45m " standout mode | |
| 51 :set t_ue=^[[0;1;36m " underline end | |
| 52 :set t_us=^[[1;32m " underline mode start | |
| 53 [the ^[ is an <Esc>, type CTRL-V <Esc> to enter it] | |
| 54 | |
| 55 For real color terminals the ":highlight" command can be used. | |
| 56 | |
| 231 | 57 The file "tools/vim132" is a shell script that can be used to put Vim in 132 |
| 7 | 58 column mode on a vt100 and lookalikes. |
