| 20 1. Generic | |
| 21 ========== | |
| 22 | |
| 23 If you compile Vim without specifying anything, you will get the default | |
| 24 behaviour as is documented, which should be fine for most people. | |
| 25 | |
| 26 For features that you can't enable/disable in another way, you can edit the | |
| 27 file "feature.h" to match your preferences. | |
| 28 | |
| 29 | |
| 30 2. Unix | |
| 31 ======= | |
| 32 | |
| 33 Summary: | |
| 34 1. make run configure, compile and link | |
| 35 2. make install installation in /usr/local | |
| 36 | |
| 37 This will include the GUI and X11 libraries, if you have them. If you want a | |
| 38 version of Vim that is small and starts up quickly, see the Makefile for how | |
| 1268 | 39 to disable the GUI and X11. If you don't have GUI libraries and/or X11, these |
| 7 | 40 features will be disabled automatically. |
| 41 | |
| 42 See the start of Makefile for more detailed instructions about how to compile | |
| 43 Vim. | |
| 44 | |
| 45 If you need extra compiler and/or linker arguments, set $CFLAGS and/or $LIBS | |
| 46 before starting configure. Example: | |
| 47 | |
| 48 env CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LIBS=-lm make | |
| 49 | |
| 50 This is only needed for things that configure doesn't offer a specific argument | |
| 51 for or figures out by itself. First try running configure without extra | |
| 52 arguments. | |
| 53 | |
| 54 GNU Autoconf and a few other tools have been used to make Vim work on many | |
| 55 different Unix systems. The advantage of this is that Vim should compile | |

56 on most systems without any adjustments. The disadvantage is that when |
| 7 | 57 adjustments are required, it takes some time to understand what is happening. |
| 58 | |
| 59 If configure finds all library files and then complains when linking that some | |
| 60 of them can't be found, your linker doesn't return an error code for missing | |
| 61 libraries. Vim should be linked fine anyway, mostly you can just ignore these | |
| 62 errors. | |
| 63 | |
| 64 If you run configure by hand (not using the Makefile), remember that any | |
| 65 changes in the Makefile have no influence on configure. This may be what you | |
| 66 want, but maybe not! | |
| 67 | |
| 68 The advantage of running configure separately, is that you can write a script | |
| 69 to build Vim, without changing the Makefile or feature.h. Example (using sh): | |
| 70 | |
| 71 CFLAGS=-DCOMPILER_FLAG ./configure --enable-gui=motif | |
| 72 | |
| 73 One thing to watch out for: If the configure script itself changes, running | |
| 74 "make" will execute it again, but without your arguments. Do "make clean" and | |
| 75 run configure again. | |
| 76 | |
| 77 If you are compiling Vim for several machines, for each machine: | |
| 78 a. make shadow | |
| 79 b. mv shadow machine_name | |
| 80 c. cd machine_name | |
| 81 d. make; make install | |
| 82 | |
| 83 [Don't use a path for machine_name, just a directory name, otherwise the links | |
| 84 that "make shadow" creates won't work.] | |
| 85 | |
| 86 | |
| 87 Unix: COMPILING WITH/WITHOUT GUI | |
| 88 | |
| 1268 | 89 NOTE: This is incomplete, look in Makefile for more info. |
| 90 | |
| 7 | 91 These configure arguments can be used to select which GUI to use: |
| 1268 | 92 --enable-gui=gtk or: gtk2, motif, athena or auto |
| 7 | 93 --disable-gtk-check |
| 94 --disable-motif-check | |
| 95 --disable-athena-check | |
| 96 | |
| 97 --enable-gui defaults to "auto", so it will automatically look for a GUI (in | |
| 98 the order of GTK, Motif, then Athena). If one is found, then is uses it and | |
| 99 does not proceed to check any of the remaining ones. Otherwise, it moves on | |
| 100 to the next one. | |
| 101 | |
| 1268 | 102 --enable-{gtk,gtk2,kde,motif,athena}-check all default to "yes", such that if |
| 7 | 103 --enable-gui is "auto" (which it is by default), GTK, Motif, and Athena will |
| 104 be checked for. If you want to *exclude* a certain check, then you use | |
| 1268 | 105 --disable-{gtk,gtk2,kde,motif,athena}-check. |
| 7 | 106 |
| 107 For example, if --enable-gui is set to "auto", but you don't want it look for | |
| 108 Motif, you then also specify --disable-motif-check. This results in only | |
| 109 checking for GTK and Athena. | |
| 110 | |
| 111 Lastly, if you know which one you want to use, then you can just do | |
| 1268 | 112 --enable-gui={gtk,gtk2,kde,motif,athena}. So if you wanted to only use Motif, |
| 113 then you'd specify --enable-gui=motif. Once you specify what you want, the | |
| 114 --enable-{gtk,gtk2,kde,motif,athena}-check options are ignored. | |
| 115 | |
| 116 On Linux you usually need GUI "-devel" packages. You may already have GTK | |
| 117 libraries installed, but that doesn't mean you can compile Vim with GTK, you | |
| 118 also need the header files. | |
| 7 | 119 |
| 120 For compiling with the GTK+ GUI, you need a recent version of glib and gtk+. | |
| 1268 | 121 Configure checks for at least version 1.1.16. An older version is not selected |
| 122 automatically. If you want to use it anyway, run configure with | |
| 123 "--disable-gtktest". | |
| 7 | 124 GTK requires an ANSI C compiler. If you fail to compile Vim with GTK+ (it |
| 125 is the preferred choice), try selecting another one in the Makefile. | |
| 126 If you are sure you have GTK installed, but for some reason configure says you | |
| 127 do not, you may have left-over header files and/or library files from an older | |
| 128 (and incompatible) version of GTK. if this is the case, please check | |
| 129 auto/config.log for any error messages that may give you a hint as to what's | |
| 130 happening. | |
| 131 | |
| 1268 | 132 There used to be a KDE version of Vim, using Qt libraries, but since it didn't |
| 133 work very well and there was no maintainer it was dropped. | |
| 11 | 134 |
| 135 | |
| 7 | 136 Unix: COMPILING WITH MULTI-BYTE |
| 137 | |
| 138 When you want to compile with the multi-byte features enabled, make sure you | |

139 compile on a machine where the locale settings actually work, otherwise the |
| 7 | 140 configure tests may fail. You need to compile with "big" features: |
| 141 | |
| 142 ./configure --with-features=big | |
| 143 | |
| 144 Unix: COMPILING ON LINUX | |
| 145 | |
| 146 On Linux, when using -g to compile (which is default for gcc), the executable | |
| 147 will probably be statically linked. If you don't want this, remove the -g | |
| 148 option from CFLAGS. | |
| 149 | |
| 150 Unix: PUTTING vimrc IN /etc | |
| 151 | |
| 152 Some Linux distributions prefer to put the global vimrc file in /etc, and the | |
| 153 Vim runtime files in /usr. This can be done with: | |
| 154 ./configure --prefix=/usr | |
| 155 make VIMRCLOC=/etc VIMRUNTIMEDIR=/usr/share/vim MAKE="make -e" | |
| 156 | |
| 157 Unix: COMPILING ON NeXT | |
| 158 | |
| 159 Add the "-posix" argument to the compiler by using one of these commands: | |
| 160 setenv CC 'cc -posix' (csh) | |
| 161 export CC='cc -posix' (sh) | |
| 162 And run configure with "--disable-motif-check". | |
| 163 | |
| 1668 | 164 Unix: LOCAL HEADERS AND LIBRARIES NOT IN /usr/local |
| 165 | |
| 166 Sometimes it is necessary to search different path than /usr/local for locally | |
| 167 installed headers (/usr/local/include) and libraries (/usr/local/lib). | |
| 168 To search /stranger/include and /stranger/lib for locally installed | |
| 169 headers and libraries, use: | |
| 170 ./configure --with-local-dir=/stranger | |
| 171 And to not search for locally installed headers and libraries at all, use: | |
| 172 ./configure --without-local-dir | |
