Re: Vim on the iPad

Hello,

I have start looking the iOS appstore version some month ago, without the control key (also it have some bugs) it's nearly unusable. Now I use a modified iOS version, I added Control key, Escape key, Tab key using Ctrl-I , html help files, gesture for Ctrl-], Ctrl-T for help text navigation. I have a problem with shift-Tab or shift-Ctrl-I completion, and it's difficult to find where is the bug, I have an idea, but this take some time to implement.

Best regards,

But that was true of Vim itself when I first contemplated giving it a try, and now whether there's a way to get it working on an iPad is a consideration in thinking about purchasing an iPad.
