vim inoperable

[erichiller]

Color scheme seems to be working fine, but navigation is a no go. I can't exit I have to kill the task in order to leave. It also only takes up a small portion of the screen (24 lines). Enter works, characters work, arrow keys do not. Escape must not since I can not get to :q

Let me know what other information you'd like. Newest connector, newest conemu.

Hope that helps. I do not have dumpbin and from what I could tell it is a component of visual studio which I do not have. Thanks! -Eric

Where you've seen recommendation to set term=pcansi?

https://conemu.github.io/en/VimXterm.html

[erichiller]

A fix long ago, was the only way I could get something working. I no longer remember the details. It was maybe even something in cmd or powershell I really don't remember.

I changed it to:

    "set term=pcansi
    set term=xterm

And it still did the same

[Maximus5]

Still need list of imports of your vim. Well, list of dlls from ProcessExplorer is suitable, process execution tree would be nice too. Any, what is vim version?

That's wrong vim! Proper one from msys2 packages is linked with msys2-0.dll.

[Maximus5]

Also, I do not see paths of bash.exe and sh.exe, but seems like you've specified wrong startup command for your tab - too many shells.

[erichiller]

I was running win32 vim as it was one of the ones specificied as working whereas msys's was not listed. I now have vim-msys for msys and vim-win32 for cmd and powershell working. The reason for the extra bash/sh above vim before was that I had a 'helper' script to open it prior, that is no longer required thanks to your connector.

[erichiller]

I have everything going except the arrow keys/mouse. I have the msys and windows installed side-by-side. Attached. I have the msys version selected. No more wrapper script.
