Re: vim and debugger history

It sounds as if you are using the debugger inside VIM (is there even an integration available?ł), but I think you are calling vim from the debugger. (right?)

AFAIR in the latter case you are able to customize an editor inside the debugger to edit multiple lines˛, wouldn't surprise me if Mac doesn't like VIM.°

Or are you talking about switching only the line edit commands from GNU (i.e. emacs) to VI?

IIRC there is a set option to do so.

see http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Use_vi_shortcuts_in_terminal

°) understandably as an emacser ;-)

˛) seems what I remebered was the pager support, which doesn't really allow to edit the history though!

see

  DB<1> h |
|dbcmd        Run debugger command, piping DB::OUT to current pager.
||dbcmd        Same as |dbcmd but DB::OUT is temporarily select()ed as
+ well.

> IIRC there is a set option to do so. > see http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Use_vi_shortcuts_in_terminal you can also try to do it interactively `DB<1>!!set -o vi` [download] tested on ubuntu and bash update though the result feels strange but I'm not a vi expert. or to be more precise of the vi-emulation in gnu-readline Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply] [d/l]

Vim works on Mac OSX very well. Unlike your politics.	[reply]

Never denied it, Jeff! I was only talking about Mac politics to NOT favour it in default settings. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!} PS: Sorry for feeding...	[reply]
