Hello lispers,
First of all, thanks a lot for the slim-vim effort! I've discovered lisp
relatively recently and decent vim support was quite a barrier for me.
A couple of issues related to building vim:
- had to chmod +x the following files:
/configure
/src/mkinstalldirs
/src/configure
/src/auto/configure
- export LC_ALL=C (changing only LC_NUMERIC didn't work for me)
Another thing is that "ecl-config --libs" seems to output /usr/local/lib/ecl
despite having been configured (and installed
in) --prefix=/usr/local/ecl-0.9i, ie,
$ /usr/local/ecl-0.9i/bin/ecl-config --libs
-Wl,--rpath,/usr/local/lib/ecl -L/usr/local/lib/ecl -lecl -ldl -lm
This is ecl's bug but it affects the built process. vim's configure/make
silently ignore their failure to find ecl's libraries and build vim without
ecl even when configured with --enable-eclinterp.
It took me several builds to track the problem, hopefully reporting this will
save other people's time (until it's fixed in the makefile and/or
ecl-config).
Being able to evaluate forms from vim is awesome! I'm kind of puzzled though
with the output on syntax errors in the buffer window. Is this feature
work-in-progress or am I supposed to be able to make something out of it?
Thanks a lot and keep up the great work ;)
