General *qnx-general* + +Vim on QNX behaves much like other unix versions. |os_unix.txt| + + +2. Compiling Vim *qnx-compiling* + +Vim can be compiled using the standard configure/make approach. If you want to +compile for X11, pass the --with-x option to configure. Otherwise, running +./configure without any arguments or passing --enable-gui=photon, will compile +vim with the Photon gui support. Run ./configure --help , to find out other +features you can enable/disable. + + +3. Terminal support *qnx-terminal* + +Vim has support for the mouse and clipboard in a pterm, if those options +are compiled in, which they are normally. + +The options that affect mouse support are |'mouse'| and |'ttymouse'|. When +using the mouse, only simple left and right mouse clicking/dragging is +supported. If you hold down shift, ctrl, or alt while using the mouse, pterm +will handle the mouse itself. It will make a selection, separate from what +vim's doing. + +When the mouse is in use, you can press Alt-RightMouse to open the pterm menu. +To turn the mouse off in vim, set the mouse option to nothing, set mouse= + + +4. Photon GUI *photon-gui* + +To start the gui for vim, you need to run either gvim or vim -g, otherwise +the terminal version will run.

Fonts *photon-fonts* + +You set fonts in the gui with the guifont option > + :set guifont=Lucida\ Terminal +< +The font must be a monospace font, and any spaces in the font name must be +escaped with a '\'. The default font used is PC Terminal, size 8. Using +'*' as the font name will open a standard Photon font selector where you can +select a font. + +Following the name, you can include optional settings to control the size and +style of the font, each setting separated by a ':'. Not all fonts support the +various styles. + +The options are, + s{size} Set the size of the font to {size} + b Bold style + a Use antialiasing + i Italic style + +Examples: + +Set the font to monospace size 10 with antialiasing > + :set guifont=monospace:s10:a +< +Set the font to Courier size 12, with bold and italics > + :set guifont=Courier:s12:b:i +< +Select a font with the requester > + :set guifont=* +< + + +6.
