Ignore that last email. I discovered my issue was caused by copying /use/share/applications/vim.desktop to my .local/share/applications didn't work no matter what changes I made even after updating the database with the correct path. I discovered if I just made a new vim.desktop with not as much info as the original it worked so I'm all good now . I can launch vim from rofi with a class so it gets matched and using an alias I can type vim and it gets matched too. ☺️
