More pleasant vim
I used to love vim on Redhat.
But on Slackware 9.0, I reluctantly use joe instead because: * vim keys are annoying. Pressing key-i once does not always go to insert mode. Backspace, del, arrows also do not work consistently (sometimes it works, the other times they produce garbage characters). * There is no color, just plain black and white. Please tell me how to fix it. Should I get some configuration files from redhat ? Thanks. |
You shouldn't need to get the rh files. If you copy the vimrc_example.vim (/usr/share/vim/vim61 on mine)to ~/.vimrc, it should sort these things out. I'm not sure why this isn't done automatically, if you're going to be adding more users, you might want to copy this to /etc/skel as well.

I confirm what BigBadPenguin said: copying the vimrc_example into your directory, as ".vimrc" fixes 99.9% of all problems for me. :D

Thanks Pinguin and Noryunngi.
I'm back to vim now :) |
ln -s /usr/share/vim/vim61/vimrc_example.vim /usr/share/vim/vimrc
