I type vim, or some times the App-Shortcut/link/whatever that is was placed in my applications panel with the Vim logo, after installing vim from the appmanager. > Are you trying to run /usr/bin/vim directly?

In this particular post (or because of the hour). it is not clear to me what do you mean. It appears to be a contradiction. Anyways, the only difference I notice between Terminal >> type[vi] and Terminal >> type[*vim*] is that when I type (i) to insert the word INSERT is placed at the bottom of the screen between hyphens, and characters are purple, and the screen (because I changed it for my terminal output) is black. *~ * *~ * *~ * *~ -- INSERT -- * Instead of *~ * *~** * *~** * *I No file 1/1 100%** * *In None of them appears the splash screen, only the INSERT or EDIT words for the modes. Instead of the I and nothing "" for the edit mode in regular vi.* I really don't know how what else to say, except please be patient. I Installed vim from the app-manager, that places an icon in applications, whether I hit that Icon or type the word [*vim*] in the Terminal application, the first (purple letters) screen appears. I don't ever type vi. And In the purple screen. Should I uninstall it and re-install it by apt, should I download it from the site vim.org, compile it? Is there a configuration or filesys option that is required and I might not have? For instance I learn earlier that I couldn't execute Go (language) compiled sources inside MyDocs/whateverDirectory, instead because of vfat I had to copy the files (hellowworld sample) to the usr/bin and chmod from there to run it. then deleted to keep my /usr/bin clean. May be I am missing something. Again to have an overview: PR.1.2 Vim Editor installed from Maemo App-Manager (I have here the Extas-Devel catalog but I thing Vim was there before I added this catalog so no problem) have ~/.vimrc with [syntax on, set background=dark] (*note: separated by comma only here, not in real file*) have ~/.vim/syntax/ directory have ~/.vim/syntax/go.vim (syntax for Go language) have ~/.vim/colors/ directory (testing midnight2 theme) have ~/.vim/colors/midnight2.vim Should I have any Environment Variables that indicate the location to my ~./vimrc to vim? f(t) 2010/6/22 Cláudio Sampaio <[email protected]> > On Mon, Jun 21, 2010 at 11:45 PM, Francisco Diaz Trepat - gmail < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Definitely there is something wrong with my installation. >> >> even if I set background=dark from the command >> >> :set background=dark >> :set bg=dark >> :set bg "dark" >> >> it doesn't do anything. >> >> What can I do? >> > > Are you sure you're not using the "vi" shortcut from busybox?
