It is +wise to have a "vim" directory to keep your vimrc file and any other files you +change. The distributed files go into a subdirectory. This way you can +easily upgrade to a new version. For example: + + dh0:editors/vim contains your vimrc and modified files + dh0:editors/vim/vim54 contains the Vim version 5.4 distributed files + dh0:editors/vim/vim55 contains the Vim version 5.5 distributed files + +You would then unpack the archives like this: + + cd dh0:editors + tar xf t:vim81bin.tar + tar xf t:vim81rt.tar + +Set the $VIM environment variable to point to the top directory of your Vim +files. For the above example: + + set VIM=dh0:editors/vim + +Vim version 5.4 will look for your vimrc file in $VIM, and for the runtime +files in $VIM/vim54. See ":help $VIM" for more information. + +Make sure the Vim executable is in your search path. Either copy the Vim +executable to a directory that is in your search path, or (preferred) modify +the search path to include the directory where the Vim executable is. |
