README.txt for version 7.2a of Vim: Vi IMproved. Tutor is a "hands on" tutorial for new users of the Vim editor.
Most new users can get through it in less than one hour. The result
is that you can do a simple editing task using the Vim editor.
WHAT IS VIM Tutor is a file that contains the tutorial lessons. You can simply
execute "vim tutor" and then follow the instructions in the lessons.
The lessons tell you to modify the file, so DON'T DO THIS ON YOUR
ORIGINAL COPY.
Vim is an almost compatible version of the UNIX editor Vi. Many new features On Unix you can also use the "vimtutor" program. It will make a

There is also a Graphical User Interface (GUI) available. See
"runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt" for differences with Vi.
This editor is very useful for editing programs and other plain ASCII files. I have considered adding more advanced lessons but have not found the

DISTRIBUTION
There are separate distributions for Unix, PC, Amiga and some other systems.
This README.txt file comes with the runtime archive. It includes the
documentation, syntax files and other files that are used at runtime. To run
Vim you must get either one of the binary archives or a source archive.
Which one you need depends on the system you want to run it on and whether you
want or must compile it yourself. Check "http://www.vim.org/download.php" for
an overview of currently available distributions.
DOCUMENTATION
The best is to use ":help" in Vim. If you don't have an executable yet, read
"runtime/doc/help.txt". It contains pointers to the other documentation
files. The User Manual reads like a book and is recommended to learn to use
Vim. See ":help user-manual".
The vim tutor is a one hour training course for beginners. Mostly it can be
started as "vimtutor". See ":help tutor" for more information.
COPYING
Vim is Charityware. You can use and copy it as much as you like, but you are
encouraged to make a donation to orphans in Uganda. Please read the file
"runtime/doc/uganda.txt" for details (do ":help uganda" inside Vim).
Summary of the license: There are no restrictions on using or distributing an
unmodified copy of Vim. Parts of Vim may also be distributed, but the license
text must always be included. For modified versions a few restrictions apply.
The license is GPL compatible, you may compile Vim with GPL libraries and
distribute it.
SPONSORING
Fixing bugs and adding new features takes a lot of time and effort. To show
your appreciation for the work and motivate Bram and others to continue
working on Vim please send a donation.
Since Bram is back to a paid job the money will now be used to help children
in Uganda. See runtime/doc/uganda.txt. But at the same time donations
increase Bram's motivation to keep working on Vim!
For the most recent information about sponsoring look on the Vim web site:

COMPILING
If you obtained a binary distribution you don't need to compile Vim. If you
obtained a source distribution, all the stuff for compiling Vim is in the
"src" directory. See src/INSTALL for instructions.

README_ami.txt Amiga
README_unix.txt Unix
