OS/2 ======= -Summary: -ren Makefile Makefile.unix -ren makefile.os2 Makefile -make - -This port of Vim to OS/2 is based on the emx environment together -with GNU C. The main design goal of emx is to simplify porting Unix -software to OS/2 and DOS. Because of this, almost all the Unix defines -etc. already existing in the Vim source code could be reused. Only where -OS/2 specifics came into play were additional changes necessary. Those -places can be found by searching for "OS2" and "__EMX__" (I've tried to -keep emx-specific things separate from generic OS/2 stuff). - -Note: This OS/2 port works well for me and an additional OS/2 user on - the Vim development team (Karsten Sievert); however, since I - haven't had any other feedback from other people, that either - means no (OS/2-specific) bugs exist, or no one has yet created - a situation in which any bugs are apparent. - Report any problems or other comments to paul@wau.mis.ah.nl - (email valid up to at least September 1996, after that try - paul@wurtel.hobby.nl, paul@murphy.nl, or paulS@toecompst.nl). - Textmode/notextmode and binary mode both seem to work well. - -Prerequisites: -- To compile, you need the emx environment (at least rev. 0.9b), GCC, - some make utility (GNU make works fine). These are generally - available as (ask Archie about them): - emxrt.zip emx runtime package - emxdev.zip emx development system (without compiler) - GNU programs compiled for emx, patches and patched sources: - gnudev1.zip GNU development tools compiled for emx (part 1) - gnudev2.zip GNU development tools compiled for emx (part 2) - gnumake.zip GNU make -- Don't set a TERM environment variable; Vim defaults to os2ansi - which is available as a builtin termcap entry. Using other values - may give problems! (OS/2 ANSI emulation is quite limited.) If you - need to set TERM for other programs, you may consider putting - set term=os2ansi in the vimrc file. - -Check ../runtime/doc/os_os2.txt for additional info on running Vim. +OS/2 support was removed in patch 7.4.1008 4.
