2<title>Installation of Vim</title>
3
4<para>If you don't like vim to be installed as an editor on the LFS system,
5you may want to download an alternative and install an editor you
6prefer. There are a few hints how to install different editors
7available at <ulink url="&hints-root;"/>. The hints
8which are currently available are for Emacs, Joe and nano.</para>

10<para>Install Vim by running the following commands:</para>

12<para><screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr &amp;&amp;
13make CPPFLAGS=-DSYS_VIMRC_FILE=\\\"/etc/vimrc\\\" &amp;&amp;
14make install &amp;&amp;
15ln -sf vim /usr/bin/vi</userinput></screen></para>
16
17<para>If you plan on installing the X Window system on your LFS
18system, you might want to re-compile Vim after you have installed X. Vim
19comes with a nice GUI version of the editor which requires X and a few
20other libraries to be installed. For more information read the Vim
21documentation.</para>

26<title>FHS compliance notes</title>
27
28<para>The FHS says that editors like vim should use /var/lib/&lt;editor&gt;
29for their temporary state files, like temporary save files for example.
30If you wish vim to conform to the FHS, you should use this command set
31instead of the one presented above:</para>
32
33<para><screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var/lib/vim &amp;&amp;
34make CPPFLAGS=-DSYS_VIMRC_FILE=\\\"/etc/vimrc\\\" &amp;&amp;
35make install &amp;&amp;
36ln -sf vim /usr/bin/vi</userinput></screen></para>
