Vim (Vi improved) es un editor de texto basado en el editor de texto vi. Se puede utilizar desde la línea de órdenes o como una aplicación independiente con una interfaz gráfica de usuario.

Vim should not be confused with Neovim, a similar program which may be used in its place.

Emerge

Si no se necesita soporte del sistema X Window, simplemente se puede instalar app-editors/vim:

root #emerge --ask app-editors/vim

Software adicional

Gvim

Para instalar Vim con la interfaz basada en ncurses (/usr/bin/vim) y la interfaz gráfica (para el sistema X Window /usr/bin/gvim), instalar el paquete app-editors/gvim:

root #emerge --ask app-editors/gvim

Packages

Vim has support for packages, which provide a native mechanism to extend functionality. Read the built-in packages documentation for more information: :help packages

Extensiones

La categoría app-vim ofrece una gran cantidad de definiciones adicionales de sintaxis, plugins y otros elementos relacionados con Vim.

Utilice emerge o eix para obtener una vista general de los paquetes disponibles en la categoría app-vim:

user $emerge --search "%@^app-vim"

user $eix -cC app-vim

Not all Vim plugins will be available in the Gentoo repository. Vim now includes native packages, as a way to install plugins, and there are also several plugin managers for Vim.

Configuración

Archivos

Vim se puede configurar para cada usuario o para todo el sistema mediante un fichero de configuración:

• /etc/vim/vimrc - El fichero de configuración para todo el sistema (global).
• ~/.vimrc - El fichero de configuración específico para cada usuario (local). La virgulilla (~) indica que se encuentra en el directorio de inicio del usuario.

Esquema de colores

El paquete Vim contiene cerca de una docena de colores. Se pueden listar tecleando colorscheme en el modo de última línea y tecleando bien Ctrl+d, bien Tabdo veces:

:colorscheme

blue       darkblue   default    delek      desert     elflord    evening    industry   koehler    morning    murphy     pablo      peachpuff  ron        shine      slate      torte      zellner

Se pueden cambiar en Vim usando la orden colorscheme (utilice colo de forma alternativa) mientras se está en el modo de última línea:

:colorscheme peachpuff

Los esquemas de color se pueden aplicar de forma permanente en el fichero .vimrc:

ARCHIVO ~/.vimrc

colorscheme peachpuff
syntax on

La primera línea define el esquema de color mientras que la última activa el esquema.

Selecting vi editor and system default editor

If Vim - and only Vim - is installed, the vi command should launch Vim. If other vi-like editors are installed, eselect may be used to choose which editor the vi command launches.

The text editor article may also be of interest for setting a system default editor, if Vim is to be set as the default.

Gentoo syntax

To enable support for the Gentoo syntax plugin (app-vim/gentoo-syntax) within vim, add the following lines to the user's ~/.vimrc file:

ARCHIVO ~/.vimrc

filetype plugin on
filetype indent on

leave_my_textwidth_alone

By default, Vim and Neovim do not hard-wrap lines, i.e., typing on a line longer than a certain length does not create a new line. However, Gentoo installs config files for Vim and Neovim that cause lines longer than 78 characters in .txt files to be hard-wrapped. To override this behavior, the following should be specified in the user's ~/.vimrc file:

ARCHIVO ~/.vimrc

let g:leave_my_textwidth_alone=1

bug #559800 contains some discussion around this issue.

Comenzar

Vim tiene un tutorial incorporado que requiere alrededor de treinta minutos de lectura. Comience utilizando la orden vimtutor:

user $vimtutor

Consejos y trucos

Usar Vim como ex o ed desde la línea de órdenes

Es posible utilizar Vim para ficheros de una línea, órdenes que se pueden utilizar en la línea de órdenes para hacer cambios sin intervención del usuario.

Por ejemplo, la siguiente orden añade # al principio de cada línea en el fichero fichero.txt:

user $vim -c ":%s/^/#/g" -c ":x" fichero.txt

Lo que ocurre es que Vim interpreta las órdenes que se han pasado (mediante la opción the -c). La primera orden es la orden de sustitución de Vim (que es muy similar a la de sed), la segunda es la instrucción de Vim para guardar y salir del editor.

Cambiar la codificación del fichero

Para cambiar la codificación del fichero a UTF-8, utilice la siguiente orden (en el modo de última línea):

:e ++enc=utf8

Tal y como se muestra en el truco anterior, es posible hacer esto también desde la línea de órdenes:

user $vim -c ":wq! ++enc=utf8" fichero.txt

Troubleshooting

I'm trapped in vim!

For someone entering vim without first having learned how to use it, it may not be obvious how to quit.

Press esc several times, then :, q, enter. To quit without saving, press esc several times, then :, q, !, enter.

If several files are open, try pressing esc several times, then :, q, a, enter. To quit without saving, press esc several times, then :, q, a, !, enter.

If this doesn't help, and desperate measures are needed, something like killall vim may be a last ditch solution (from another terminal). Beware that this will terminate all the vim sessions for a user, without saving. If run as root, such a command will terminate all vim sessions for all users on the system.

Pastes are being tabbed

Say the following text is trying to be pasted into a Vim buffer:

CÓDIGO Sample tabbed data

some:
  yaml:
    - data
    - structured
  in:
    - this
    - shape
  that:
    - VIM
    - may 
not: like

Vim may interpret this with autotabbing, breaking the paste:

CÓDIGO Vim misinterpretation

some:
  yaml:
      - data
          - structured
	   in:
	       - this
		   - shape
		     that:
		         - VIM
			     - may 
			     not: like

To correct this, run the following command: :set paste to enable Vim's paste mode, once the paste is completed, :set nopaste can be used to go back to the previous settings.

E1187

user $vim foobar

E1187: Failed to source defaults.vim
Press ENTER or type command to continue

Seems solved by destabilize 8.2.4328.
