Introduction to Vim
The Vim package, which is an
abbreviation for VI IMproved, contains a vi
clone with extra features as compared to the original
vi.
The default LFS instructions install
vim as a part of the base system.
If you would prefer to link vim against X,
you should recompile vim to enable
GUI mode. There is no need for
special instructions since X support is automatically detected.
