Guilford Ave -Indianapolis IN 46220 USA - -============================================================================== -1. Filename Convention *mac-filename* - -Starting with Vim version 7 you can just use the unix path separators with -Vim. In order to determine if the specified filename is relative to the -current folder or absolute (i.e. relative to the "Desktop"), the following -algorithm is used: - - If the path start by a "/", the path is absolute - If the path start by a ":", the path is relative - If the path doesn't start by neither a "/" nor ":", - and a ":" is found before a "/" then the path is absolute -> - :e /HD/text - :e HD:text -< Edit the file "text" of the disk "HD" > - :e :src:main.c - :e src/main.c -< Edit the file "main.c" in the folder "src" in the current folder > - :e os_mac.c -< Edit the file "os_mac.c" in the current folder. - -You can use the |$VIM| and |$VIMRUNTIME| variable. > - - :so $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/syntax.vim - -============================================================================== -2. .vimrc and .vim files *mac-vimfile* - -It is recommended to use Unix style line separators for Vim scripts, thus a -single newline character. - -When starting up Vim will load the $VIMRUNTIME/macmap.vim script to define -default command-key mappings. - -On older systems files starting with a dot "." are discouraged, thus the rc -files are named "vimrc" or "_vimrc" and "gvimrc" or "_gvimrc". These files -can be in any format (mac, dos or unix). - -============================================================================== -3. Mac FAQ *mac-faq* - -On the internet: http://macvim.org/OSX/index.php#FAQ - -Q: I can't enter non-ASCII character in Apple Terminal. -A: Under Window Settings, Emulation, make sure that "Escape non-ASCII - characters" is not checked. - -Q: How do I start the GUI from the command line? -A: Assuming that Vim.app is located in /Applications: - open /Applications/Vim.app - Or: - /Applications/Vim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim -g {arguments} - -Q: How can I set $PATH to something reasonable when I start Vim.app from the - GUI or with open? -A: The following trick works with most shells.
