Parts of the documentation come from several Vi manuals, written by: W.N. Joy Alan P.W. Hewett Mark Horton The Vim editor is based on Stevie and includes (ideas from) other software, worked on by the people mentioned here. Other people helped by sending me patches, suggestions and giving feedback about what is good and bad in Vim. Vim would never have become what it is now, without the help of these people!

Without further remarks this is the version of Vi that appeared in Sun OS 4.x. ":version" returns "Version 3.7, 6/7/85". Source code only available with a license. Nvi Nvi The "New" Vi. The version of Vi that comes with BSD 4.4 and FreeBSD. Very good compatibility with the original Vi, with a few extensions. The version used is 1.79. ":version" returns "Version 1.79 (10/23/96)". Source code is freely available. Elvis Elvis Another Vi clone, made by Steve Kirkendall. Very compact but isn't as flexible as Vim. Source code is freely available. Vim Nvim is based on Vim. https://www.vim.org/ ============================================================================== Neovim fundraiser backers backers.txt Thank you to everyone who backed the original Neovim Fundraiser.
