Description

Vim is a text editor first released publicly in 1991. Based on the vi editor common to Unix-like systems, Vim is designed for use both from a command line interface and as a standalone application in a graphical user interface. Vim is free and open source software and is released under a license which includes some charityware clauses, encouraging users who enjoy the software to consider donating to children in Uganda.

Great idea, but needs work

slow_learner_2019 on

I love the idea of having a VIM on my iPad. As other reviewers have pointed out, the app can be improved by deeper integration with iOS. Critically, my folio keyboard really doesn’t work with the app, with keys periodically becoming non-responsive. Since the development appears to be largely stalled, would the developer consider making the project as an open source? I doubt this will ever be a huge money maker, but could attract a small motivated community of developers.

Technically good, practically useless

This isn't a terrible implementation of vim by any means. Only problem is that it's not possible to move files in or out for editing. So in practical terms it's pretty useless' at least I am yet to find a reason to use it. An SSH client is a more practical way to use vim on the iPad.

Cannot export files

This app is useless without the ability to export your files. It's a nice enough implementation, but you can't do anything with it.

I like it

It also includes the encryption function, so I'm happy with that. I agree that "\" as ESC is a bit of a pain (doesn't take too long to get used to it), but it would be nice to have an extra bar above the keyboard with ESC and arrows (especially for an iPad where there is more room). The other things that would be nice are DropBox (etc) integration, and Copy/Paste functionality. Still great for the price :-)

Needs integration with file management apps

Thanks for porting this over. But please please add support for integration with Dropbox/Google Drive. Without any way of getting files on and off the device it is fairly limited.

Awesome but lacking one feature

Yuri2011 on

Please add integration with other apps so that we can open Dropbox files using this app This especially useful for syncing vim-encrypted passwords

Great start

MacVim is my favourite text editor so thanks for going to the trouble to port this! It supports multi-tasking so it would be a huge improvement if iOS copy and paste was integrated. Then it would be so much easier to copy the contents of .vimrc prefs file for a start. It can only get better from here on in ..

Very cool!

This is really cool. Not sure how practical it will be, but having VIM on your iPhone is sure to be a net positive for your geek cred. A quick note for other people about to try this out: the escape key is mapped to the "\" key, and you can get iOS specific help with ":help ios".

怎么回事
