Open files by drag-n-drop in the Terminal version of vim
The following AppleScript enables me to open files by drag-n-drop with
the Terminal version of vim.
Copy the script to a "Script Editor" window and save as an
"application".
Edit "myVim" to point to the version of vim you want to use in
terminal. The following should work for the default install of MacVim:
set myVim to "/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim"
I added the resulting AppleScript application to the Dock and the
Desktop, making it easy to open files by drag-n-drop in the Terminal
version of vim.
