I have compiled and installed Vim using pkgsrc on my Linux Mint Debian Edition.
I've already reported the issue on the pkgsrc-users list and it has

Yes, sorry, blame Debian. I'm not sure if attachments are allowed, but
I've attached vim-version, build logs and the crash logs. Let me know
if they are visible and allowed.

Hi all,
I have this bash alias:
alias my-date='date +"%A %d %B %Y"'
and this line in vimrc:
set shellcmdflag=-ic
I want to insert (prepend) a timestamp at the beginning of a non-empty
line, without line breaks, but if I type:
:r !my-date
this will print the timestamp on the next line, that is

Hi all,
apart from the excellent "vi_diff" in the docs, is anybody aware of a
basic cheat sheet of commands comparison between vim and *BSD nvi?
Thanks

Hi,
Maybe this is off-topic but I hope you guys can help, as there's no
specific maling list for classic vi/nvi.
On my system (Linux/amd64 Debian 4.9.189) I have:
- vim (vim 8.1)
- vi (aliased to vim)
- nvi (nvi-1.81.6nb5 )
For self-educational purposes, I've been trying to teach myself to use

Hi,
this is a snippet or my vimrc:
$ cat .vim/vimrc

set expandtab

Hi,
this is another "Press ENTER or type command to continue " question,
but this time it's a bit different and bit bizarre. My vim version at
the end of this message.
I have a directory with some symbolic links:

I've just compiled from the latest Github sources (8.2.0671), and
unfortunately I have the same problem.

I've been using Vim for almost 4 years now and I haven't got it right yet.
I have a block of text (say, 10 lines) that I want to copy from
somewhere to somewhere else.
I put the cursor on the first line, press capital v (shif
I have installed and uninstalled gvim many times. I have to re learn
some (many) keyboard combinations. Is there a safe way to mod gvim to
make it behave exactly like vim on the terminal?
