VimCE

VimCE is a port of Vim-6.0 for WinCE. It handles ASCII files only. Most macros work, even explorer.vim has been reported to work. External commands are not supported yet.

Installation

  • Get the tarball and copy the binary for your device somewhere on your machine. The HPC builds should also run on a PPC.
  • Get celib.dll 3.10 or higher and copy to \windows.
  • Create a home directory if it does not exist already and create a HOME entry in HLM\Environment and make it point to the dir.
  • Create a vim dir somewhere on your device and make a VIM var in HLM\Environment point to it. Copy any macro files there.
  • Create a $HOME/_exrc file for VIM initialization, if your like. You can set the font with the 'guifont' variable and the number of lines with 'lines'. On a PPC you might want to set 'nowrap'.
  • Read more about general registry entries.

    Problems

  • Macro files should be saved in UNIX format (only LF line terminator).
  • On PPC, you have to use C-c instead of ESC.
  • On German keyboards, the tilde might have to be generated with the *left* alt key.
