+Vim with KDE: kvim
+
+ON THE INTERNET
+===============
+
+	The homepage is http://www.freehackers.org/kvim/
+	The core is build around the official vim-6.x releases and patches
+
+	KVim CVS is full and does not need extra package. Just download and compile it.
+
+INSTALL :
+=========
+	We now use Vim's configure to configure, compile and install KVim.
+
+	Don't forget, that you need to have QT and KDE headers and tools installed, otherwise it won't
+	work ! (these can commonly be found in kde-devel/qt-devel packages)
+	
+	Enter the 'src' directory and configure it your way (you need to add at least these flags to the configure command line : --enable-gui=kde --with-qt-dir=$QTDIR ) then make and make install as root.
+	We added to configure some options for KDE / QT detection, it will for example, find whether you use KDE 2.x or KDE 3.x automatically. For now, QT is _not_ autodetected. I hope to fix this soon.
+	From KVim 6.1, you can now use a KDE toolbar instead of Vim's Toolbar, to enable it, use the --enable-kde-toolbar configure flag.
+
+
+=> If it fails : (yes it still can, the configure script i wrote is still experimental and probably not
+perfect ;p)
+	or 'how to make a bug report' :
+
+	In some cases, I can imagine it will fail, if this happens then send to marchand@kde.org :
+		->auto/config.mk (important one)
+		->your configure command line with your options
+		->your paths : where KDE is (which version ?), where QT is (version ?), and find where your
+			libs are (your kdelibs, your QT libs and QT headers)
+		->the output of 'kde-config --version'
+		->your OS / Linux Distribution version
+		->in case of a compilation error : the full error output.
+		->the compiler used (gcc 2.95, 2.96, 3.1 ...)
+		->any stuff you think could be usefull to me :)
+
+	Thanks for giving KVim a try, we hope you'll enjoy it !
+
+
+DEVELOPMENT STATE AND KNOWN BUGS:
+=================================
+Most Vim GUI features are now implemented, only multibyte support is incomplete.
+We are working on this and this is our primary goal after KVim 6.1 release.
+We hope to get it to work before we include KVim into the core Vim which we want to
+do before the end of the year 2002 if possible.
+
+We would be happy to hear from you if you've tried kvim. Tell us
+what is missing, what you like and don't like, and what you want.
+
+As people have wished it for a while, Philippe developped a component for Vim.
+The component is now fully usable with GVim and KVim and can be found on KDE's CVS
+in the kdeextragear-1 module.
+
+SOURCE ACCESS:
+==============
+Releases and maybe snapshots are/will be found on http://freehackers.org/kvim/
+The CVS is CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.tuxfamily.org:/cvsroot/kvim
+(with no password)
+You'll find there a full vim 6.x package (with runtime files included).
+
+MAILING LIST:
+=============
+As we released KVim 6.0, we created a public mailing list, for feedback,
+user help and development related discussions : "kvim-dev@freenux.org",
+ to subscribe send a mail to "kvim-dev-subscribe@freenux.org" with
+"subscribe" as the subject and just reply to the mail you will receive.
+(sorry the admin messages are in french, but the list discussions are in
+english)
+
+THANKS :
+========
+To all the guys on #kde@opn (Neil, Malte and many other) and to all the people who
+tried, debugged, compiled and recompiled again KVim to bring now a much more robust KVim
+and of course to all of you who send patchs and comments :)
+And of course to Vim Authors :)
