Vim ports very well under DJGPP 2.04 beta... even the mouse support works.

Make sure that you have the latest pdcurses installed. For the rest,
just follow the autoconf - configure - make dance. See 'configure --help
for the rest ;-)

BTW, I do ALL of my development on DJGPP-VIM now... (except for
occasional rhide or notepad use).

This message was written in VIM, called by mutt ported to DJGPP using
Wattcp-32 ;-)
