That by itself may cause you problems. 2) Where did this version of vim come from, and how did you install it? The fact that it's looking for libc.so.6 makes me think it might be a version compiled for Linux instead of FreeBSD (my version of vim links to libc.so.4, for example) and if that is true, you need to have your system set up for Linux compatability. See Chapter 22 in the FreeBSD handbook, 'Linux Binary Compatibility' for details. (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/linuxemu.html) -- David Fleck david.fleck@mchsi.com
