Is this the right version of Vim for OS X Snow Leopard?
macos, osx-snow-leopard, vim
Solution
You should definitely check out MacVim. It's a port of Vim for the mac, written in Cocoa (like Safari, Mail and many other Mac apps). Regarding Snow Leopard compatibility, the developer says:
The stable build seems to run fine on Snow Leopard, but please consider using a snapshot instead as they are built specifically for Snow Leopard (the snapshot also runs on Leopard).
Problem
I'd like to try Vim. I'm using Mac OS 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard). I downloaded vim7.0.224.tar.bz2 from here. However, I have doubts. It's the newest version offered, but the heading says "OS X 10.4 (Tiger)". Is there another, preferable version I should know about?
