Jul 13, 2012 - We all make mistakes, and when you mistakenly delete all that long line in vim, you really need the undo command. Well, vim has an undo. Vim can run the makefile without leaving the editing session::map:make - map the F9 key to run make:set makeprg - change what:make does:make will compile if you are using a Makefile. Hand controls for handicapped drivers for mac. Macintosh includes its own version of X11 on *some* of its operating systems. However, I would like to compile vim so that vim uses the Mac windows system, just like the standard binary distributions for Windows use the Windows gui, not an X11 in Windows. My reason for wanting to compile vim so that it uses the Mac gui is mostly so this binary can work on Mac boxes that don't have X11 installed. Since X11 is not installed by default, that means most Macs. I also want to compile a version to work on the Mac gui because the Mac gui works a bit better: the X11 system means using a windows system within a windows system, with a whole separate menu. I understand I will probably have to compile several different binaries for different Mac OSs, such Tiger and Panther. My goal right now is to get a gui vim working with Mac's own windows system, or gui. I don't know what problems I have had in the past when compiling. I did not have the X11 window system installed. I know that when I compile now, I use the following configuration:./compile --with-features==huge --enable-gui After I issue make, I see that the compiling program begins to link to the /usr/X11 library. I believe this means vim uses the X11 system to compile. How can I get vim to use Mac's gui? I have read the INSTALL several times, and I know that options exist such as: --enable-gui=motif However, if I am not mistaken, all of these options are for X11 type systems. I have compiled a successful version of vim that works in the terminal mode with this configuration:./configure --with-features=huge ' --prefix=/Users/cynthia/test_code/vim_terminal/' --disable-gui --without-x --with-compiledby='Paul Tremblay' thanks Paul -- ************************ *Paul Tremblay * * * ************************. > I am trying to compile vim to work on Mac OSX.

The binaries do not work on any machine that has re-compiled python. The instructions on how to compile vim have not been helpful at all.
