https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197214 Bug ID: 197214 Summary: editors/vim: gvimrc system-wide runs set nocompatible and breaks a lot of settings Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: sunpoet@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jjuanino@gmail.com Assignee: sunpoet@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(sunpoet@FreeBSD.org) Hi, the installed system wide gvimrc runs "set nocompatible" and thus breaks a lot of previous settings in custom $HOME/.vimrc. As you can read in the user manual about compatible: CAREFUL: Setting or resetting this option can have a lot of unexpected effects: Mappings are interpreted in another way, undo behaves differently, etc. If you set this option in your vimrc file, you should probably put it at the very start. It could be fine run "set nocompatible" in vimrc system-wide, but not in gvimrc.
