Macvim Terminal #146

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi,

I installed MacVim stable version on my MacBook running Leopard. But when I 
launch macvim from 
the terminal, by typing mvim, the GUI version comes up. Is it possible to make 
MacVim run from the 
terminal, like the typical vi from LINUX? 

Thank you,

Lucas

Yes, by running `/Applications/MacVim/Contents/MacOS/Vim` in Terminal. You can 
put `alias 
vim=/Applications/MacVim/Contents/MacOS/Vim` into your ~/.bashrc to make this 
easier.

The alias worked. Thanks!

Thanks for your answer. Maybe this would be obvious to a more regular Mac user, 
but
just in case, I actually had to use "alias
vim=/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim" (using 10.4).
