It has not been -tested on 3.0, it probably won't work without being recompiled and -modified. (But you really should upgrade to 3.11 anyway. :) - -In most respects it behaves identically to the Win32 GUI version, including -having a flat-style toolbar(!). The chief differences: - -1) Bold/Italic text is not available, to speed up repaint/reduce resource - usage. (You can re-instate this by undefining MSWIN16_FASTTEXT.) -2) No tearoff menu emulation. -3) No OLE interface. -4) No long filename support (of course). -5) No tooltips on toolbar buttons - instead they produce command-line tips - like menu items do. -6) Line length limited to 32767 characters (like 16-bit DOS version). - - -============================================================================== -1. Starting the GUI *win16-start* - -The Win16 GUI version of Vim will always start the GUI, no matter how you -start it or what it's called. There is no 'console' version as such, but you -can use one of the DOS versions in a DOS box. - -The Win16 GUI has an extra menu item: "Window/Select Font". It brings up the -standard Windows font selector. Note that bold and italic fonts are not -supported in an attempt to maximize GDI drawing speed. - -Setting the menu height doesn't work for the Win16 GUI. - - *win16-maximized* -If you want Vim to start with a maximized window, add this command to your -vimrc or gvimrc file: > - au GUIEnter * simalt ~x -< - -There is a specific version of gvim.exe that runs under the Win32s subsystem -of Windows 3.1 or 3.11. See |win32s|. - -============================================================================== -2. Vim as default editor *win16-default-editor* - -To set Vim as the default editor for a file type you can use File Manager's -"Associate" feature. - -When you open a file in Vim by double clicking it, Vim changes to that -file's directory. - -See also |notepad|. - -============================================================================== -3. Using the clipboard *win16-clipboard* - -Windows has a clipboard, where you can copy text to, and paste text from. Vim -supports this in several ways. -The clipboard works in the same way as the Win32 version: see |gui-clipboard|. - -============================================================================== -4. Shell Commands *win16-shell* - -Vim spawns a DOS window for external commands, to make it possible to run any -DOS command. The window uses the _default.pif settings. - - *win16-!start* -Normally, Vim waits for a command to complete before continuing (this makes -sense for most shell commands which produce output for Vim to use). If you -want Vim to start a program and return immediately, you can use the following -syntax: - :!start {command} -This may only work for a Windows program though. -Don't forget that you must tell Windows 3.1x to keep executing a DOS command -in the background while you switch back to Vim. - -============================================================================== -5. Special colors *win16-colors* - -On Win16, the normal DOS colors can be used. See |dos-colors|. - -Additionally the system configured colors can also be used. These are known -by the names Sys_XXX, where XXX is the appropriate system color name, from the -following list (see the Win32 documentation for full descriptions). Case is -ignored. - -Sys_BTNFace Sys_BTNShadow Sys_ActiveBorder -Sys_ActiveCaption Sys_AppWorkspace Sys_Background -Sys_BTNText Sys_CaptionText Sys_GrayText -Sys_Highlight Sys_HighlightText Sys_InactiveBorder -Sys_InactiveCaption Sys_InactiveCaptionText Sys_Menu -Sys_MenuText Sys_ScrollBar Sys_Window -Sys_WindowFrame Sys_WindowText - -Probably the most useful values are - Sys_Window Normal window background - Sys_WindowText Normal window text - Sys_Highlight Highlighted background - Sys_HighlightText Highlighted text - -These extra colors are also available: -Gray, Grey, LightYellow, SeaGreen, Orange, Purple, SlateBlue, Violet, - - -See also |rgb.txt|. - -============================================================================== - *win16-dialogs* -6. Windows dialogs & browsers - -The Win16 GUI can use familiar Windows components for some operations, as well -as the traditional interface shared with the console version. - - -6.1 Dialogs - -The dialogs displayed by the "confirm" family (i.e. the 'confirm' option, -|:confirm| command and |confirm()| function) are GUI-based rather than the -console-based ones used by other versions. There is no option to change this. - - -6.2 File Browsers - -When prepending ":browse" before file editing commands, a file requester is -used to allow you to select an existing file. See |:browse|. - - -============================================================================== -7. Various *win16-various* - - *win16-printing* -The "File/Print" menu uses Notepad to print the current buffer. This is a bit -clumsy, but it's portable. If you want something else, you can define your -own print command. For example, you could look for the 16-bit version of -PrintFile. See $VIMRUNTIME/menu.vim for how it works by default. - -Using this should also work: > - :w >>prn - -Vim supports a number of standard MS Windows features. Some of these are -detailed elsewhere: see |'mouse'|, |win32-hidden-menus|. -Also see |:simalt| - - *win16-drag-n-drop* -You can drag and drop one or more files into the vim window, where they will -be opened as normal. If you hold down Shift while doing this, Vim changes to -the (first) dropped file's directory. If you hold Ctrl, Vim will always split -a new window for the file. Otherwise it's only done if the current buffer has -been changed. -You can also drop a directory's icon, but rather than open all files in the -directory (which wouldn't usually be what you want) Vim instead changes to -that directory and begins a new file. -If Vim happens to be editing a command line, the names of the dropped files -and directories will be inserted at the cursor. This allows you to use these -names with any Ex command. - - *win16-truetype* -It is recommended that you use a raster font and not a TrueType -fixed-pitch font. E.g. use Courier, not Courier New. This is not just -to use less resources but because there are subtle bugs in the -handling of fixed-pitch TrueType in Win3.1x. In particular, when you move -a block cursor over a pipe character '|', the cursor is drawn in the wrong -size and bits get left behind. This is a bug in the Win3.1x GDI, it doesn't -happen if you run the exe under 95/NT. - - vim:tw=78:sw=4:ts=8:ft=help:norl: |
