VIM - fake help file for vim-tiny
The Vim online help is not installed on this Debian GNU/Linux system.
WHY ?
Because only the "vim-tiny" package is installed, whose sole purpose is to
provide the vi command for base installations. As such, it contains a minimal
version of Vim compiled with no graphical user interface and a small subset of
features, in order to keep the package size small.
Since the "vim-runtime" package is rather huge when compared to "vim-tiny",
installing the latter does not automatically install the former.
HOW TO GET A BETTER VIM
To get a more featureful Vim binary (and a vim command, rather than just vi),
install one of the following packages: vim, vim-nox, vim-athena, vim-gtk, or
vim-gtk3.
HOW TO OBTAIN HELP
either browse the Vim online help via web starting at
http://vimhelp.appspot.com/help.txt.html#help.txt
or ask your administrator to install the "vim-doc" package, which contains the
HTML version of the online help and browse it starting at
/usr/share/doc/vim/html/index.html
or ask your administrator to install the "vim-runtime" package, re-run vi and
access the online help again. Note that all the above mentioned Vim
variants other then "vim-tiny" automatically install the "vim-runtime"
package. If you don't suffer from disk space shortage using one of them is
recommended.
