Is anyone aware of a recent (v5.7) port of the VIM editor for QNX?

I’ve done one a while ago. It’s just a metter of re-compile,
the only “hack” I have to put in is the color part. Get the
source and give it a try youself. :slight_smile:

Vim compiles fairly easily from source under both QNX4 and RTP.
I personally have 5.7 running at this very instant under QNX4.

I seem to recall the configure script getting confused and not
finding some libraries (ncurses or termcap or whatever), but if you
bash on it hard enough it’ll eventually see the light.

I believe the trick is “CC=qcc ./configure”, and it will find ncurses

Is there a way to make the shift keys work in conjunction with the arrow keys for e.g. text selection?
My customer tells me the key bindings are there in VIM, but nothing happens.
