Well, that was exciting... I recently tried to build vim 7 on OSS
(Tandem / HP Nonstop S-Series). I finally got it to work by diff'ing the
ITUG Floss sources (link below) against vim-6.1 and applying the diffs
to vim-7.0 (and by first building/installing ncurses-5.5). I would like
to submit my efforts to be included upstream. Are there any objections
if I post the .patch here?
This is the ITUG vim:
https://www.itug.org/secure/ituglib/shared/act_download.cfm/vim.tar.Z?lib_file_id=666
NOTE: I also had to configure ncurses and vim as follows:
ncurses5-5$ CFLAGS=-WIEEE_float ./configure
vim-7.0$ LDFLAGS=-lfloss CFLAGS=-WIEEE_float ./configure
(I am not sure if 'floss' is necessary, but it was used in ITUG vim61.)
Well, IMHO you ought to send them to Bram < [EMAIL PROTECTED] >,
preferably in the form of context or unified diffs against the most
recent sources (i.e., 7.0 as seen after applying the 39 "official"
patches already published). If your patches are bulky, they might
perhaps not be worth publishing on the list; but that's only my private
opinion.
Best regards,
Tony.
