I use following in my zshrc. It sets alias vim
default to GUI MacVim if no ssh connection and not root. If GUI MacVim is used, EDITOR set to wait MacVim in foreground.
I don't use MacVim
executable for execution from command line as something with -f
didn't work back in the day.
unset _mvim
if [[ "$UID" -ne 0 && -z "${SSH_CLIENT}" && -z "${SSH_CONNECTION}" && -z ${SSH_TTY} ]]; then
_mvim=/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/MacVim
fi
# try to alias vim to MacVim GUI, and to terminal vim otherwise
alias_executable vim $_mvim /Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim /opt/local/bin/vim /usr/local/bin/vim /usr/bin/vim /bin/vim vim vi
_mvim=$(whence vim)
if [[ $_mvim == "/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/MacVim" ]]; then
alias vim='/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim -g'
export EDITOR="$(whence vim) -f"
else
_mvim=$(whence vim)
if [[ -n $_mvim ]]; then
export EDITOR=$_mvim
fi
fi
unset _mvim
