Intergating program into Shell - VI editor

[DBAlex]

You can always add a shell alias to the s:Shell-Startup script that will call your editor from its real path using whatever alias you choose.

So, using the VIM: assign mentioned by squidbass for example:

Code: [Select]

Alias vi vim:vim


Or by using its full path, say it's "Work:Productivity/Vim/vim"

Code: [Select]

Alias vi "Work:Productivity/vim/vim"


Now, to edit that text file, you would simply type "vi workbench:misc/text.txt" in your shell.

Yeah I always use shell aliases... just like UNIX hehe (don't tell anyone that though)

I used to have one setup for Python too, so I can just launch Python scripts easily. Maybe I had that or the Python dir was part of where AOS looks for programs... it's PATH, can't remember how to set that though...

EDIT: I think it's something like:

path add vim:vim
