Open macvim through terminal

2014-11-22 Thread Paul Wallace
Hey guys, I'm a complete newby to macvim.
The problem is that I'm not sure how to open macvim through terminal.
I've put macvim into my applications folder but I still can't open macvim with 
the
mvim or macvim commands in terminal. 
Would it have something to do with my configuration path?

Thanks guys!

Yes, that sounds like the problem.

Type echo $PATH to see your path.  The 'mvim' script must be in one of the 
directories in your path, and also executable, for it to work.

Executable means that you can run it by typing mvim.  Type ls -l mvim in 
mvim's directory.  You'll see something like:

$ ls -l ~/bin/mvim 
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 andy  andy  2218 17 Aug  2010 /Users/andy/bin/mvim

If you don't see any xs in the first chunk of the line, run chmod 755 mvim 
to make it executable.

Yours,
Andy Stewart
