    I set the editor to vim in the CIW but when I try to open up a text
    view it doesn't work. Any ideas on how to get vim to work?

    \i editor="vim"
    \t "vim"
    \p >
    \i ddsServOpen("worklib" "opan" "xx" "edit")
    \o *WARNING* editFile: Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal
    \o Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal

    Use:

    editor = "vim -g"

    ()

  3. Or if vim hasn't been compiled with the gui option:

    editor="xterm -e vim"
