At a guess, you installed the vim package but aren't using X. You solve that by building the port with NO_GUI set. If that's not the case, tell us: How did you install vim-5.8.8? From the package, the port, or external sources? Are you running it under X, or do you otherwise have X installed, and if so, which version? http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
