But when I use a mouse and demo the code it just bugs me. Please have a look at following captured photos which is fine before scrolling and wrong afterwards.Īlthough I use keyboard in most of time, which makes me blind on this issue. But it's so annoying that can't help me asking for help.

Also, I will try to update the project's README page in this week or so as it doesn't tell you anything you need to know today.This could be a rare issue related to individual environment.

But I'm biased! If you install MacVim it also comes bundled with a terminal version of Vim (that you can also use :gui to transition from terminal to GUI) so you won't have to maintain a separate version of Vim that you manually install (the Vim that comes with macOS isn't updated frequently so if you want the latest and greatest you sometimes want to install a custom one anyway).Īs for why MacVim is a separate thing from Vim (as a downstream fork), discussed that in another comment below. And something I have on my plate to introduce in near future includes features like pixel-smooth scrolling which could be a bit more tricky to implement in a generic terminal. Cmd-C to copy), and other features that only a native mac app can do. It supports features like drag-and-drop, Touch Bar menu bindings, touch bad gesture support, binding Cmd keys (e.g. MacVim is mostly a souped up gVim (GUI Vim) implementation. On the other hand it may not be as fast if you just need to do a few lines of edits or a Git commit message, so it depends.

You can resize the window or go full screen, drag-and-drop etc. It's easier to alt/cmd-tab to, and it's managed by the GUI window manager. Personally when I do long editing sessions, even when I'm on Windows or Linux, I prefer a separate GUI app rather than using the terminal. MacVim is a GUI app, but it also bundles a version of terminal Vim as well so you can use either. You can use both GUI and terminal Vim but it's a somewhat personal preference for how much you like to stay within terminal. There are really two questions here: 1) Should I use a GUI for Vim, and 2) How is MacVim different from other Vim GUIs. Is there a great improvement from the terminal application?
