<para>Compile the package:</para>

<para>And install the package:</para>

<screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen>

|
|
|
<para>Vim can run in old-fashioned <emphasis>vi</emphasis> mode by
|
|
creating a symlink, which may be created with the following command:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>ln -s vim /usr/bin/vi</userinput></screen>

|
|
<para>If you plan to install the X Window system on your LFS
|
|
system, you might want to re-compile Vim after you have installed X. Vim
|
|
comes with a nice GUI version of the editor which requires X and a few
|
|
other libraries to be installed. For more information read the Vim
|
|
documentation.</para>
