YES! vim-enhanced is the package for Fedora 14, I've got the Huge

on a newly installed Fedora 14 system (running Amahi, headless),
I have another issue. I did not notice it on the previously used Ubuntu
and Fedora 14 systems. they do not exist anymore, so no reference.
considering the solution to my primairy issue, I installed vim-enhanced.
for "vi -x" it works fine, however view(1) does not prompt for a
password, and immediately shows the garbage
when I want to edit the crypted file, I use "vi", not "vim"
[root@hda ~]# ll /bin/vi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 787200 Sep 21 11:27 /bin/vi
[root@hda ~]# ll /bin/view
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 2 Nov 11 21:55 /bin/view -> vi
[root@hda ~]# ll /usr/bin/vim
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2105272 Sep 21 11:27 /usr/bin/vim
[root@hda ~]# echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin
[root@hda ~]#
so when I "vi" a file, it use vim(1), although PATH hits /bin before
/usr/bin
/bin/vi --version shows it is the Small version
/usr/bin/vim --version shows it is the Huge version
I'm lost, my goal is to use view(1) in "Huge mode" and not corrupt the
package structure
To use the vim executable by default:
cd /usr/bin
ln -sv vim view
ln -sv vim vimdiff
etc., see :help ex
(don't link gvim, gview, etc. unless your vim is GUI-enabled of course).
This way, /usr/bin/view (-> vim in the same directory) will be found
before /bin/view (-> vi in the same directory), so no need to remove the
other symlink.
Best regards,
Tony.
