You are likely wrong about this. I'm willing to bet that a lot of |
6 |
people, even people responding to this thread, are vim users. However |
7 |
most of us know how to set an environment variable. |

What you are witnessing is one person trolling and purporting that it is |
10 |
"always vim users". |

I've actually never heard of any veteran Gentoo users who use vim |
21 |
complain about anything. Gentoo is *very* friendly to vim, just look |
22 |
at /usr/portage/app-vim. Maybe I've been completely blind but in the 7 |
23 |
years I've been using Gentoo this is the first time I've heard a vim |
24 |
user "get their panties in a knot" and this can be easily discounted as |
25 |
trollage. |

So perhaps your apparent frustration is misdirected? |
