Description

Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems.

Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing configuration files.

FreeBSD has the following Vim packages: * vim: Console-only Vim (vim binary) with all runtime files * vim-gtk3, -gtk2, -motif: Console Vim plus a GUI (gvim binary) * vim-x11: Console Vim only, with xclipboard support * vim-tiny: Vim binary only, with no runtime files. Not useful for most people; intended for minimal (ex. jail) installations

Message after installing

Vim no longer installs or reads a system-wide vimrc. The only overridden
  defaults are those which provide FreeBSD-specific settings. Read through
  $VIMRUNTIME/defaults.vim to see Vim's defaults, and see ':h initialization'
  for the standard locations Vim looks for configuration files.
