| *MiNT* *Atari* |
| This file contains the particularities for the Atari MiNT version of Vim. |
| |
| For compiling Vim on the Atari running MiNT see "INSTALL" and "Makefile" |
| in the src directory. |
| |
| Vim for MiNT behaves almost exactly like the Unix version. |
| The Unix behavior described in the documentation also refers to the |
| MiNT version of Vim unless explicitly stated otherwise. |
| |
| For wildcard expansion of <~> (home directory) you need a shell that |
| expands the tilde. The vanilla Bourne shell doesn't recognize it. |
| With csh and ksh it should work OK. |
| |
| The MiNT version of vim needs the termcap file /etc/termcap with the |
| terminal capabilities of your terminal. Builtin termcaps are |
| supported for the vt52 terminal. Termcap entries for the TOSWIN window |
| manager and the virtual console terminals have been appended to the |
| termcap file that comes with the Vim distribution. |
| |
| If you should encounter problems with swapped <BS> and <Del> keys, see |
| |:fixdel|. |
| |
| Because terminal updating under MiNT is often slow (e.g. serial line |
| terminal), the 'showcmd' and 'ruler' options are default off. |
| If you have a fast terminal, try setting them on. You might |
| also want to set 'ttyfast'. |
