A few questions about running vim from the shell.
The biggest problem I have is that vim seems to default to a size of 80x25 (or something similiar) no matter how big my shell-window is. Is there any way around this?
My second problem is that the arrow-keys doesn't work from a normal shell (they do work if I run it from within ksh though), I can use 'hjkl' to move the cursor but then I need to jump in/out of insert-mode all the time, and I'm used to just being able to move the cursor while in insert-mode with the arrow-keys. Is there anything I can do to get them working from the normal shell?
I don't know the answer to any of the above I'm afraid. The reason I did spend time doing the MUI GUI was that the console version was very far from what you expect from VIM on other platforms. Maybe I'll spend some time later on to see if I can improve the console version. Or maybe someone else (you?) can have a look, it looks as if the Amiga parts in VIM could use some love (it's probably been a while).
