Speaking of exotic OS, I have installed "Haiku" (OS compatible with BeOS, see http://www.haiku-os.org) and downloaded latest Vim from Mercurial. Vim-7.3f compiles without warning and passes all tests on Haiku. I noticed a few minor glitches though: * The configure script says... "checking for BeOS... no" I suppose it should say "checking for BeOS... yes" since Haiku is meant to be compatible with BeOS. I did not observe anything wrong as a result so far anyway. * Vim-7.3f works fine in the terminal on Haiku but there is no GUI (no gVim). The BeOS GUI was dropped in Vim-7 according to ":help compile-changes-7": ====== COMPILE TIME CHANGES compile-changes-7 Dropped the support for the BeOS and Amiga GUI. They were not maintained and probably didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version and merge it back in. ====== However, ":help BeOs" still contains information about the BeOS GUI without stating that it was dropped in Version-7. * I did "set mouse=a". I can use the mouse to position the cursor and mouse also works fine with Netrw (clicking on directories opens them...). However, I cannot use the mouse to resize Vim's windows (nothing happens when I click the statusline and try to drag it). ~> uname -a Haiku shredder 1 r36769 May 8 2010 20:58:31 BePC Haiku ~> echo $TERM xterm-color ~> vim --version VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3f BETA (2010 Aug 13, compiled Aug 14 2010 06:59:00) Compiled by u...@shredder Huge version without GUI.
