77 The Vim tutor is a one hour training course for beginners. Often it can be |
6916 | 78 started as `vimtutor`. See `:help tutor` for more information. |
79 | |
80 The best is to use `:help` in Vim. If you don't have an executable yet, read | |
81 `runtime/doc/help.txt`. It contains pointers to the other documentation | |
82 files. The User Manual reads like a book and is recommended to learn to use | |
83 Vim. See `:help user-manual`. | |
84 | |
85 | |
86 ## Copying ## | |
87 | |
88 Vim is Charityware. You can use and copy it as much as you like, but you are | |
89 encouraged to make a donation to help orphans in Uganda. Please read the file | |
90 `runtime/doc/uganda.txt` for details (do `:help uganda` inside Vim). | |
91 | |
92 Summary of the license: There are no restrictions on using or distributing an | |
93 unmodified copy of Vim. Parts of Vim may also be distributed, but the license | |
94 text must always be included. For modified versions a few restrictions apply. | |
95 The license is GPL compatible, you may compile Vim with GPL libraries and | |
96 distribute it. | |
97 | |
98 | |
99 ## Sponsoring ## | |
100 | |
101 Fixing bugs and adding new features takes a lot of time and effort. To show | |
102 your appreciation for the work and motivate Bram and others to continue | |
103 working on Vim please send a donation. | |
104 | |
105 Since Bram is back to a paid job the money will now be used to help children | |
106 in Uganda. See `runtime/doc/uganda.txt`. But at the same time donations | |
107 increase Bram's motivation to keep working on Vim! | |
108 | |
109 For the most recent information about sponsoring look on the Vim web site: | |
110 http://www.vim.org/sponsor/ | |
