All you need is that it's a GUI-enabled Vim 6.0 or +better. +Push the test button, if that's okay then that's should be enough to start +using it :) + +FUNCTIONMENT +============ +Philippe Fremy (pfremy@kde.com) wrote the initial version of this kpart. +The concept is to start a normal GUI Vim (like gvim), then "embeds" the Vim +window into a KDE Widget. +It used to be based on the ClientServer feature of Vim (type :help +clientserver in Vim for more info) using external processus to control the +embedded Vim. That was running quite fine, but was slow :/ +We changed that :) +Now we communicate directly from the kpart to the embedded Vim thanks to X11 +without using externals processus. That's much faster and reliable ;) +KVim has also another remote control system using KDE's DCOP communication +backend. +Currently I would advice people to use DCOP when running KVim and using X11 +communication with GVim (DCOP won't work with GVim anyway). +There may be some differences in speed, though I have not noticed it here. +The most important difference is that DCOP provides a signal system and that can +make a difference to improve the interaction between KVim and the hosting +application (KDevelop for example). But it's not yet used. +. +1,114c +Yes, that's really a Vim Komponent :) +Yes, you can have Vim inside KDE apps, you guessed it :) +. |
