It may be obvious, but obvious things have a way of getting overlooked:
- When compiled with GNOME support, Vim already does some interfacing with the
window manager, including the kde window manager. For instance, if Vim is
running when you close the kde wm, it will be reopened with the same settings
and editfiles when you restart kde.
- There used to be a specific version of Vim with kde GUI (called kvim) but
the kde guys dropped support for it at some point between releases 6.2 and 6.3
of Vim. It is now completely obsolete.
