Last modification 1996 June 11 + +This file contains the particularities for the Atari MiNT version of Vim. + +For compiling Vim on the Atari running MiNT see "INSTALL" and "Makefile" +in the src directory. + +Vim for MiNT behaves almost exactly like the Unix version. +The Unix behavior described in the documentation also refers to the +MiNT version of Vim unless explicitly stated otherwise. + +For wildcard expansion of <~> (home directory) you need a shell that +expands the tilde. The vanilla Bourne shell doesn't recognize it. +With csh and ksh it should work OK. + +The MiNT version of vim needs the termcap file /etc/termcap with the +terminal capabilities of your terminal. Builtin termcaps are +supported for the vt52 terminal. Termcap entries for the TOSWIN window +manager and the virtual console terminals have been appended to the +termcap file that comes with the Vim disrribution. + +If you should encounter problems with swapped <BS> and <Del> keys, see +|:fixdel|. + +Because terminal updating under MiNT is often slow (e.g. serial line +terminal), the 'showcommand' and 'ruler' options are default off. +If you have a fast terminal, try setting them on. You might +also want to set 'ttyfast'. + +Send bug reports to + + Jens M. Felderhoff, e-mail: jmf@infko.uni-koblenz.de |
