| 5 | vim, compiled with "vim-with-x" works correctly when X is broken. It |
| 6 | doesn't enable X11-based UI, like flag "X" suggests. It just enables |
| 7 | optional connection to x-server to use its clipboard, and vim still |
| 8 | works if that connection fails. |

| 10 | X11-based UI is in separate package, "app-editors/gvim" |
