+
+==============================================================================
+1. Introduction						*workshop-intro*
+
+Sun Visual WorkShop has an "Editor of Choice" feature designed to let users
+debug using their favorite editors. For the 6.0 release we have added support
+for gvim. A workshop debug session will have a debugging window and an editor
+window (possibly others as well). The user can do many debugging operations
+from the editor window, minimizing the need to switch from window to window.
+
+The version of vim shipped with Sun Visual WorkShop 6 (also called Forte
+Developer 6) is vim 5.3. The features in this release are much more reliable
+than the vim/gvim shipped with Visual WorkShop. VWS users wishing to use vim
+as their editor should compile these sources and install them in their
+workshop release tree.
+
+==============================================================================
+2. Commands						*workshop-commands*
+
+						*:ws* *:wsverb*
+:ws[verb] verb			Pass the verb to the verb executor
+
+Pass the verb to a workshop function which gathers some arguments and
+sends the verb and data to workshop over an IPC connection.
+
+==============================================================================
+3. Compiling vim/gvim for WorkShop			*workshop-compiling*
+
+Compiling vim with FEAT_SUN_WORKSHOP turns on all compile time flags necessary
+for building a vim to work with Visual WorkShop. The features required for VWS
+have been built and tested using the Sun compilers from the VWS release. They
+have not been built or tested using Gnu compilers. This does not mean the
+features won't build and run if compiled with gcc, just that nothing is
+guaranteed with gcc!
+
+==============================================================================
+4. Configuring gvim for a WorkShop release tree		*workshop-configure*
+
+There are several assumptions which must be met in order to compile a gvim for
+use with Sun Visual WorkShop 6.
+
+    o You should use the compiler in VWS rather than gcc. We have neither
+      built nor tested with gcc and cannot guarantee it will build properly.
+
+    o You must supply your own XPM library. See |workshop-xpm| below for
+      details on obtaining the latest version of XPM.
+
+    o Edit the Makefile in the src directory and uncomment the lines for Sun
+      Visual WorkShop. You can easily find these by searching for the string
+      FEAT_SUN_WORKSHOP
+
+    o We also suggest you use Motif for your gui. This will provide gvim with
+      the same look-and-feel as the rest of Sun Visual WorkShop.
+
+The following configuration line can be used to configure vim to build for use
+with Sun Visual WorkShop:
+
+    $ CC=cc configure --enable-workshop --enable-gui=motif \
+	-prefix=<VWS-install-dir>/contrib/contrib6/<vim-version>
+
+The VWS-install-dir should be the base directory where your Sun Visual WorkShop
+was installed. By default this is /opt/SUNWspro. It will normally require
+root permissions to install the vim release. You will also need to change the
+symlink <VWS-install-dir>/bin/gvim to point to the vim in your newly installed
+directory. The <vim-version> should be a unique version string. I use "vim"
+concatenated with the equivalent of version.h's VIM_VERSION_SHORT.
+
+==============================================================================
+5. Obtaining the latest version of the XPM library	*workshop-xpm*
+
+The XPM library is required to show images within Vim with Motif or Athena.
+Without it the toolbar and signs will be disabled.
+
+The XPM library is provide by Arnaud Le Hors of the French National Institute
+for Research in Computer Science and Control. It can be downloaded from
+http://koala.ilog.fr/ftp/pub/xpm. The current release, as of this writing, is
+xpm-3.4k-solaris.tgz, which is a gzip'ed tar file. If you create the directory
+/usr/local/xpm and untar the file there you can use the uncommented lines in
+the Makefile without changing them. If you use another xpm directory you will
+need to change the XPM_DIR in src/Makefile.
