Compiling Vim *beos-compiling* - -From the Advanced Access Preview Release (AAPR) on, Vim can be configured with -the standard configure script. To get the compiler and its flags right, use -the following command-line in the shell (you can cut and paste it in one go): - -CC=$BE_C_COMPILER CFLAGS="$BE_DEFAULT_C_FLAGS -O7" \ - ./configure --prefix=/boot/home/config - -$BE_C_COMPILER is usually "mwcc", $BE_DEFAULT_C_FLAGS is usually "-I- -I." - -When configure has run, and you wish to enable GUI support, you must edit the -config.mk file so that the lines with GUI_xxx refer to $(BEOSGUI_xxx) instead -of $(NONE_xxx). -Alternatively you can make this change in the Makefile; it will have a -more permanent effect. Search for "NONE_". - -After compilation you need to add the resources to the binary.

Furthermore you must -copy Vim's configuration files to $HOME/config/share/vim: -vim-5.0s/{*.vim,doc,syntax}. For completeness, you should also copy the nroff -manual pages to $HOME/config/man/man1. Don't forget ctags/ctags and xxd/xxd! - -Obviously, you need the unlimited linker to actually link Vim. See -http://www.metrowerks.com for purchasing the CodeWarrior compiler for BeOS. -There are currently no other linkers that can do the job. - -This won't be able to include the Perl or Python interfaces even if -you have the appropriate files installed. |beos-perl| - - -3. Timeout in the Terminal *beos-timeout* - -Because some POSIX/UNIX features are still missing[1], there is no direct OS -support for read-with-timeout in the Terminal. This would mean that you cannot -use :mappings of more than one character, unless you also :set notimeout. -|'timeout'| - -To circumvent this problem, I added a workaround to provide the necessary -input with timeout by using an extra thread which reads ahead one character. -As a side effect, it also makes Vim recognize when the Terminal window -resizes. - -Function keys are not supported in the Terminal since they produce very -indistinctive character sequences. - -These problems do not exist in the GUI. - -[1]: there is no select() on file descriptors; also the termios VMIN and VTIME -settings do not seem to work properly. This has been the case since DR7 at -least and still has not been fixed as of PR2. - - *beos-unicode* -4. Unicode vs. Latin1 *beos-utf8* - -BeOS uses Unicode and UTF-8 for text strings (16-bit characters encoded to -8-bit characters). Vim assumes ISO-Latin1 or other 8-bit character codes. -This does not produce the desired results for non-ASCII characters. Try the -command :digraphs to see. If they look messed up, use :set isprint=@ to -(slightly) improve the display of ISO-Latin1 characters 128-255. This works -better in the GUI, depending on which font you use (below). - -You may also use the /boot/bin/xtou command to convert UTF-8 files from (xtou --f iso1 filename) or to (xtou -t iso1 filename) ISO-Latin1 characters. - - -5. The BeOS GUI *beos-gui* - -The BeOS GUI is no longer included. It was not maintained for a while and -most likely didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version -and merge it back in. - - -6. The $VIM directory *beos-vimdir* - -$VIM is the symbolic name for the place where Vim's support files are stored. -The default value for $VIM is set at compile time and can be determined with > - - :version - -The normal value is /boot/home/config/share/vim. If you don't like it you can -set the VIM environment variable to override this, or set 'helpfile' in your -.vimrc: > - - :if version >= 500 - : set helpfile=~/vim/vim54/doc/help.txt - : syntax on - :endif - - -7. Drag & Drop *beos-dragndrop* - -You can drop files and directories on either the Vim icon (starts a new Vim -session, unless you use the File Types application to set Vim to be "Single -Launch") or on the Vim window (starts editing the files). Dropping a folder -sets Vim's current working directory. |:cd| |:pwd| If you drop files or -folders with either SHIFT key pressed, Vim changes directory to the folder -that contains the first item dropped. When starting Vim, there is no need to -press shift: Vim behaves as if you do. - -Files dropped set the current argument list. |argument-list| - - -8. Single Launch vs. Multiple Launch *beos-launch* - -As distributed Vim's Application Flags (as seen in the FileTypes preference) -are set to Multiple Launch. If you prefer, you can set them to Single Launch -instead. Attempts to start a second copy of Vim will cause the first Vim to -open the files instead. This works from the Tracker but also from the command -line. In the latter case, non-file (option) arguments are not supported. - -NB: Only the GUI version has a BApplication (and hence Application Flags). -This section does not apply to the GUI-less version, should you compile one. - - -9. Fonts *beos-fonts* - -Set fonts with > - - :set guifont=Courier10_BT/Roman/10 - -where the first part is the font family, the second part the style, and the -third part the size. You can use underscores instead of spaces in family and -style. - -Best results are obtained with monospaced fonts (such as Courier). Vim -attempts to use all fonts in B_FIXED_SPACING mode but apparently this does not -work for proportional fonts (despite what the BeBook says). - -Vim also tries to use the B_ISO8859_1 encoding, also known as ISO Latin 1. -This also does not work for all fonts. It does work for Courier, but not for -ProFontISOLatin1/Regular (strangely enough). You can verify this by giving the > - - :digraphs - -command, which lists a bunch of characters with their ISO Latin 1 encoding. -If, for instance, there are "box" characters among them, or the last character -isn't a dotted-y, then for this font the encoding does not work. - -If the font you specify is unavailable, you get the system fixed font. - -Standard fixed-width system fonts are: - - ProFontISOLatin1/Regular - Courier10_BT/Roman - Courier10_BT/Italic - Courier10_BT/Bold - Courier10_BT/Bold_Italic - -Standard proportional system fonts are: - - Swis721_BT/Roman - Swis721_BT/Italic - Swis721_BT/Bold - Swis721_BT/Bold_Italic - Dutch801_Rm_BT/Roman - Dutch801_Rm_BT/Italic - Dutch801_Rm_BT/Bold - Dutch801_Rm_BT/Bold_Italic - Baskerville/Roman - Baskerville/Italic - Baskerville/Bold - Baskerville/Bold_Italic - SymbolProp_BT/Regular - -Try some of them, just for fun. - - -10. The meta key modifier *beos-meta* - -The META key modifier is obtained by the left or right OPTION keys. This is -because the ALT (aka COMMAND) keys are not passed to applications. - - -11. Mouse key mappings *beos-mouse* - -Vim calls the various mouse buttons LeftMouse, MiddleMouse and RightMouse. If -you use the default Mouse preference settings these names indeed correspond to -reality. Vim uses this mapping: - - Button 1 -> LeftMouse, - Button 2 -> RightMouse, - Button 3 -> MiddleMouse. - -If your mouse has fewer than 3 buttons you can provide your own mapping from -mouse clicks with modifier(s) to other mouse buttons. See the swapmouse -package for an example: |gui-mouse-mapping| -$VIMRUNTIME/pack/dist/opt/swapmouse/plugin/swapmouse.vim - - -12. Color names *beos-colors* - -Vim has a number of color names built-in. Additional names are read from the -file $VIMRUNTIME/rgb.txt, if present. This file is basically the color -database from X. Names used from this file are cached for efficiency. - - -13. Compiling with Perl *beos-perl* - -Compiling with Perl support enabled is slightly tricky. The Metrowerks -compiler has some strange ideas where to search for include files. Since -several include files with Perl have the same names as some Vim header -files, the wrong ones get included. To fix this, run the following Perl -script while in the vim-5.0/src directory: > - - preproc.pl > perl.h - - #!/bin/env perl - # Simple #include expander, just good enough for the Perl header files. - - use strict; - use IO::File; - use Config; - - sub doinclude - { - my $filename = $_[0]; - my $fh = new IO::File($filename, "r"); - if (defined $fh) { - print "/* Start of $filename */\n"; - - while (<$fh>) { - if (/^#include "(.*)"/) { - doinclude($1); - print "/* Back in $filename */\n"; - } else { - print $_; - } - } - print "/* End of $filename */\n"; - - undef $fh; - } else { - print "/* Cannot open $filename */\n"; - print "#include \"$filename\"\n"; - } - } - - chdir $Config{installarchlib}."/CORE"; - doinclude "perl.h"; - -It expands the "perl.h" header file, using only other Perl header files. - -Now you can configure & make Vim with the --enable-perlinterp option. -Be warned though that this adds about 616 kilobytes to the size of Vim! -Without Perl, Vim with default features and GUI is about 575K, with Perl -it is about 1191K. - --Olaf Seibert - -[Note: these addresses no longer work:] -<rhialto@polder.ubc.kun.nl> -http://polder.ubc.kun.nl/~rhialto/be vim:tw=78:ts=8:noet:ft=help:norl: diff --git a/runtime/doc/os_vms.txt b/runtime/doc/os_vms.txt index 2bb6eb6cb..7d82799be 100644 --- a/runtime/doc/os_vms.txt +++ b/runtime/doc/os_vms.txt @@ -432,7 +432,6 @@ Terminal entry not found in termcap builtin_gui builtin_riscos builtin_amiga - builtin_beos-ansi builtin_ansi builtin_vt320 builtin_vt52 diff --git a/runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt b/runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt index 69c6c5d93..5ade8a947 100644 --- a/runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt +++ b/runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -*vi_diff.txt* For Vim version 8.2.
