vim now included in 10.3 (Panther)
Authored by: Anonymous on Nov 13, '03 10:54:21PM

This hint is mostly obsolete as vim is now the built-in replacement for vi in 10.3 (Panther).

Note that it does NOT support the GUI mode, so if you want that you'll have to build your own.

Also, in robg's hint he says you need to do a

:set term=

along with

:syntax on

to get color syntax highlighting. The term command is not needed if your haven't changed the new 10.3 default for Terminal (xterm-color).

Enjoy!

vi replacement?
Authored by: spottycat on Dec 01, '03 07:04:43PM

I'd much prefer the version of vi shipped before Panther. I've tried elvis, and still would rather use the stock vi. Does anyone have a source for <10.3's vi?
