This does not look good (in os_macosx.m): #if defined(FEAT_CLIPBOARD) && !defined(FEAT_GUI) It means the clipboard code will not get included when I compile MacVim (since it defines FEAT_GUI). I think you meant FEAT_GUI_MAC, right? Actually, why not use the clipboard code from os_macosx.m when compiling the Carbon GUI as well? As far as I can tell the code in gui_mac.c does not support blockwise copy... > > I'm not sure if we want gui_mac.c to build on 10.6, your GUI should work > better, right? That's a BIG YES. As far as MacVim vs. the Carbon GUI goes: MacVim is more complete in terms of Vim features (+client/server, +netbeans, +balloon_eval, ...), it is stable (Carbon is riddled with bugs), it comes with a proper help file, it is actively maintained, etc.. (The only feature Carbon has that MacVim doesn't (that I've ever heard anybody mention) is that Carbon GUI displays tabs in a drawer on the side of the GUI window, whereas MacVim uses "normal" style GUI tabs...) I cannot for the life of me understand why anybody would want to use the Carbon GUI still. If anybody reading this insists that the Carbon GUI has some advantage over MacVim, tell me what it is and I'll fix it. Björn -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
