Choose your preferred icon and replace the standard Vim icon with it.
[This is for the Amiga]
When started from Workbench, Vim opens a window of standard terminal size
(80 x 25). Trying to change this by adding a tool type results in a window
that disappears before Vim comes up in its own window.
If you want Vim to start with another size, it can be done using
IconX.
Follow these steps:
1. Create a script file called e.g. Vim.WB, with a single line in which the
Vim executable is started:
Echo "Vim" > Vim.WB
Protect Vim.WB +s
2. Rename the Vim icon to Vim.WB.
3. By default, the Vim icon is a program icon.
Change the icon type from "program" to "project" using IconEdit from the
"Tools" directory.
4. Change the icon settings using "information" from the WorkBench's "icon"
menu:
- The default program, of course, is "IconX".
- A stack size of 4096 should be sufficient.
- Create a WINDOW tooltype of the desired size.
The appropriate values depend on your WB font.
Example:
On a standard non-interlaced WB screen with full overscan resolution
(724 x 283 ), the WINDOW tooltype "CON:30/10/664/273" results in a
horizontally centered window with 80 columns and 32 lines.
Now Vim comes up with the new window size.
