|
|
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 $PATH to something reasonable when I start Vim.app from the
|
|
GUI or with open?
|
|
A: The following trick works with most shells. Put it in your vimrc file.
|
|
This is included in the system vimrc file included with the binaries
|
|
distributed at macvim.org . >
|
|
let s:path = system("echo echo VIMPATH'${PATH}' | $SHELL -l")
|
|
let $PATH = matchstr(s:path, 'VIMPATH\zs.\{-}\ze\n')
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
4. Mac Lack *mac-lack*
|
|
|
|
In a terminal CTRL-^ needs to be entered as Shift-Control-6. CTRL-@ as
|
|
Shift-Control-2.
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
5. Mac Bug Report *mac-bug*
|
|
|
|
When reporting any Mac specific bug or feature change, please use the vim-mac
|
|
maillist |vim-mac|. However, you need to be subscribed. An alternative is to
|
|
send a message to the current MacVim maintainers:
|
|
|
|
mac@vim.org
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
