here are the rpms I installed to get vim working. get the ones from the update site for 7.x fixed several usability issues for me. As with most things unix it works out of the box but the real poser comes in the customization. I use it for perl shell and php coding primarily and us this as my ~/.gvimrc file: [bhughes@bretsony bin]$ rpm -qa|grep vim vim-common-6.0-7.13 vim-X11-6.0-7.13 vim-minimal-6.0-7.13 vim-enhanced-6.0-7.13 As with most things unix it works out of the box but the real poser comes in the customization. I use it for perl shell and php coding primarily and us this as my ~/.gvimrc file: :set bg=dark :syntax on :set smartindent :set autoindent :set autowrite :set shiftwidth=4 :set notextmode :set notextauto :set textwidth=70 :set guioptions-=v let php_minlines = 300 I also like the reverse video so I have this alias in my ~/.bashrc alias vi='gvim -reverse' the syntax highlighting is very good for more stuff thanI wil ever code in and the folding and auto indention is way cool. doc is in /usr/share/doc/vim* HTH Bret _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
