Last change: 2016 Sep 07 + + VIM - fake help file for vim-tiny + +The Vim online help is not installed on this Debian GNU/Linux system. + +WHY ? + +Because only the "vim-tiny" package is installed, whose sole purpose is to +provide the vi command for base installations. As such, it contains a minimal +version of Vim compiled with no graphical user interface and a small subset of +features, in order to keep the package size small. + +Since the "vim-runtime" package is rather huge when compared to "vim-tiny", +installing the latter does not automatically install the former. + +HOW TO GET A BETTER VIM + +To get a more featureful Vim binary (and a vim command, rather than just vi), +install one of the following packages: vim, vim-nox, vim-athena, vim-gtk, or +vim-gtk3. + +HOW TO OBTAIN HELP + +either browse the Vim online help via web starting at + + http://vimhelp.appspot.com/help.txt.html#help.txt + +or ask your administrator to install the "vim-doc" package, which contains the + HTML version of the online help and browse it starting at + + /usr/share/doc/vim/html/index.html + +or ask your administrator to install the "vim-runtime" package, re-run vi and + access the online help again. Note that all the above mentioned Vim + variants other then "vim-tiny" automatically install the "vim-runtime" + package. If you don't suffer from disk space shortage using one of them is + recommended. |
