README
Paravim is an editor for Nim powered by Vim (via libvim) and rendered with OpenGL (via paranim). There are two ways to run it:
- As a standalone executable. That is what this repo contains. To build it, install Nim and do:
nimble install pvim
Then, as long as you have ~/.nimble/bin on your PATH, you should be able to run pvim in any directory.
- Embedded inside a game. The core of pvim is in a separate library that can be run inside a paranim game.
A few notes for linux users:
- On Ubuntu, if pvim fails to build, you may need to install X11 and OpenGL related libraries with
sudo apt install xorg-dev libgl1-mesa-dev - On Ubuntu, if pvim fails to load, try
sudo apt install libtinfo5 - On Arch, if pvim fails to load, you may need to do
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.6 /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5
