Last change: 2006 Apr 24 + + VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Bram Moolenaar + +SUMMARY + +Vim is Charityware. You can use and copy it as much as you like, but you are +encouraged to make a donation for needy children in Uganda. Please see |kcc| +below or visit the ICCF web site, available at these URLs: + + http://iccf-holland.org/ + http://www.vim.org/iccf/ + +You can also sponsor the development of Vim. Vim sponsors can vote for +features. See |sponsor|. The money goes to Uganda anyway. + +The Open Publication License applies to the Vim documentation, see +|manual-copyright|. + +=== begin of license === + +VIM LICENSE + +I) There are no restrictions on distributing unmodified copies of Vim except + that they must include this license text. You can also distribute + unmodified parts of Vim, likewise unrestricted except that they must + include this license text. You are also allowed to include executables + that you made from the unmodified Vim sources, plus your own usage + examples and Vim scripts. + +II) It is allowed to distribute a modified (or extended) version of Vim, + including executables and/or source code, when the following four + conditions are met: + 1) This license text must be included unmodified. + 2) The modified Vim must be distributed in one of the following five ways: + a) If you make changes to Vim yourself, you must clearly describe in + the distribution how to contact you. When the maintainer asks you + (in any way) for a copy of the modified Vim you distributed, you + must make your changes, including source code, available to the + maintainer without fee. The maintainer reserves the right to + include your changes in the official version of Vim. What the + maintainer will do with your changes and under what license they + will be distributed is negotiable. If there has been no negotiation + then this license, or a later version, also applies to your changes. + The current maintainer is Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org>. If this + changes it will be announced in appropriate places (most likely + vim.sf.net, www.vim.org and/or comp.editors). When it is completely + impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to send him + your changes ceases. Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has + received your changes they will not have to be sent again. + b) If you have received a modified Vim that was distributed as + mentioned under a) you are allowed to further distribute it + unmodified, as mentioned at I). If you make additional changes the + text under a) applies to those changes. + c) Provide all the changes, including source code, with every copy of + the modified Vim you distribute. This may be done in the form of a + context diff. You can choose what license to use for new code you + add. The changes and their license must not restrict others from + making their own changes to the official version of Vim. + d) When you have a modified Vim which includes changes as mentioned + under c), you can distribute it without the source code for the + changes if the following three conditions are met: + - The license that applies to the changes permits you to distribute + the changes to the Vim maintainer without fee or restriction, and + permits the Vim maintainer to include the changes in the official + version of Vim without fee or restriction. + - You keep the changes for at least three years after last + distributing the corresponding modified Vim. When the maintainer + or someone who you distributed the modified Vim to asks you (in + any way) for the changes within this period, you must make them + available to him. + - You clearly describe in the distribution how to contact you. This + contact information must remain valid for at least three years + after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim, or as long + as possible. + e) When the GNU General Public License (GPL) applies to the changes, + you can distribute the modified Vim under the GNU GPL version 2 or + any later version. + 3) A message must be added, at least in the output of the ":version" + command and in the intro screen, such that the user of the modified Vim + is able to see that it was modified. When distributing as mentioned + under 2)e) adding the message is only required for as far as this does + not conflict with the license used for the changes. + 4) The contact information as required under 2)a) and 2)d) must not be + removed or changed, except that the person himself can make + corrections. + +III) If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you are encouraged to use + the Vim license for your changes and make them available to the + maintainer, including the source code. The preferred way to do this is + by e-mail or by uploading the files to a server and e-mailing the URL. + If the number of changes is small (e.g., a modified Makefile) e-mailing a + context diff will do. The e-mail address to be used is + <maintainer@vim.org> + +IV) It is not allowed to remove this license from the distribution of the Vim + sources, parts of it or from a modified version. You may use this + license for previous Vim releases instead of the license that they came + with, at your option. + +=== end of license === + +Note: + +- If you are happy with Vim, please express that by reading the rest of this + file and consider helping needy children in Uganda. + +- If you want to support further Vim development consider becoming a + |sponsor|. The money goes to Uganda anyway. + +- According to Richard Stallman the Vim license is GNU GPL compatible. + A few minor changes have been made since he checked it, but that should not + make a difference. + +- If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits + further distribution to the GNU GPL. Also when you didn't actually change + anything in Vim. + +- Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all + further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL or a compatible license. + +- If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you can include your name and + contact information with the "--with-modified-by" configure argument or the + MODIFIED_BY define. + +============================================================================== +Kibaale Children's Centre + +Kibaale Children's Centre (KCC) is located in Kibaale, a small town in the +south of Uganda, near Tanzania, in East Africa. The area is known as Rakai +District. The population is mostly farmers. Although people are poor, there +is enough food. But this district is suffering from AIDS more than any other +part of the world. Some say that it started there. Estimations are that 10 +to 30% of the Ugandans are infected with HIV. Because parents die, there are +many orphans. In this district about 60,000 children have lost one or both +parents, out of a population of 350,000. And this is still continuing. + +The children need a lot of help. The KCC is working hard to provide the needy +with food, medical care and education. Food and medical care to keep them +healthy now, and education so that they can take care of themselves in the +future. KCC works on a Christian base, but help is given to children of any +religion. + +The key to solving the problems in this area is education. This has been +neglected in the past years with president Idi Amin and the following civil +wars. Now that the government is stable again, the children and parents have +to learn how to take care of themselves and how to avoid infections. There is +also help for people who are ill and hungry, but the primary goal is to +prevent people from getting ill and to teach them how to grow healthy food. + +Most of the orphans are living in an extended family. An uncle or older +sister is taking care of them. Because these families are big and the income +(if any) is low, a child is lucky if it gets healthy food. Clothes, medical +care and schooling is beyond its reach. To help these needy children, a +sponsorship program was put into place. A child can be financially adopted. +For a few dollars a month KCC sees to it that the child gets indispensable +items, is healthy, goes to school and KCC takes care of anything else that +needs to be done for the child and the family that supports it. + +Besides helping the child directly, the environment where the child grows up +needs to be improved. KCC helps schools to improve their teaching methods. +There is a demonstration school at the centre and teacher trainings are given. +Health workers are being trained, hygiene education is carried out and +households are stimulated to build a proper latrine. I helped setting up a +production site for cement slabs. These are used to build a good latrine. +They are sold below cost price. + +There is a small clinic at the project, which provides children and their +family with medical help. When needed, transport to a hospital is offered. +Immunization programs are carried out and help is provided when an epidemic is +breaking out (measles and cholera have been a problem). + +Summer 1994 to summer 1995 I spent a whole year at the centre, working as a +volunteer. I have helped to expand the centre and worked in the area of water +and sanitation. I learned that the help that the KCC provides really helps. +Now that I'm back in Holland, I would like to continue supporting KCC. To do +this I'm raising funds and organizing the sponsorship program. Please +consider one of these possibilities: + +1. Sponsor a child in primary school: 17 euro a month (or more). +2. Sponsor a child in secondary school: 25 euro a month (or more). +3. Sponsor the clinic: Any amount a month or quarter +4. A one-time donation + +Compared with other organizations that do child sponsorship the amounts are +very low. This is because the money goes directly to the centre. Less than +5% is used for administration. This is possible because this is a small +organization that works with volunteers. If you would like to sponsor a +child, you should have the intention to do this for at least one year. + +How do you know that the money will be spent right? First of all you have my +personal guarantee as the author of Vim. I trust the people that are working +at the centre, I know them personally. Further more, the centre is +co-sponsored and inspected by World Vision, Save the Children Fund and +International Child Care Fund. The centre is visited about once a year to +check the progress (at our own cost). I have visited the centre myself in +1996, 1998, 2000, 2001 and 2003. The visit reports are on the ICCF web site. + +If you have any further questions, send me e-mail: <Bram@vim.org>. + +The address of the centre is: + Kibaale Children's Centre + p.o. box 1658 + Masaka, Uganda, East Africa + +Sending money: + +Check the ICCF web site for the latest information!
