- This file contains the particularities for the Amiga version of Vim.
-
- Installation on the Amiga:
- - Assign "vim:" to the directory where the vim.hlp file is (for the help
- command).
- - With DOS 1.3 or earlier: Put "arp.library" in "libs:". Make sure that
- newcli and run are in "c:" (for executing external commands).
- - Put a shell that accepts a command with "-c" (e.g. "Csh" from Fish disk
- 624) in "c:" or in any other directory that is in your search path (for
- executing external commands).
-
- If you have sufficient memory you can avoid startup delays by making Vim and
- csh resident with the command "rez csh vim". You will have to put
- "rezlib.library" in your "libs:" directory. Under 2.0 you will need rez
- version 0.5.
-
- If you do not use digraphs, you can save some memory by recompiling without
- the DIGRAPHS option. If you want to use Vim with other terminals you can
- recompile with the TERMCAP option. Vim compiles with Manx 5.x and SAS 6.x.
- See the makefiles.
-
- If you want to use different colors set the termcap code t_tp (for normal
- text) and/or t_ti (for inverted text).
-
- Standard ANSI escape sequences are used. The codes are:
- 30 grey char 40 grey cell >0 grey background 0 all attributes off
- 31 black char 41 black cell >1 black background 1 boldface
- 32 white char 42 white cell >2 white background 2 faint
- 33 blue char 43 blue cell >3 blue background 3 italic
- 34 grey char 44 grey cell >4 grey background 4 underscore
- 35 black char 45 black cell >5 black background 7 reverse video
- 36 white char 46 white cell >6 white background 8 invisible
- 37 blue char 47 blue cell >7 blue background
-
- The codes with '>' must be the last. The cell and background color should be
- the same. The codes can be combined by separating them with a semicolon. For
- example to get white text on a blue background:
- :set t_tp=^V<ESC>[0;32;43;>3m
-
- When using multiple commands with a filter command, e.g.
- :r! echo this; echo that
- Only the output of the last command is used. To fix this you have to group the
- commands. This depends on the shell you use (that is why it is not done
- automatically in Vim). Examples:
- :r! (echo this; echo that)
- :r! {echo this; echo that}
-
