Tip: #1031 - Vim inside Java

Created: October 29, 2005 15:25 Complexity: advanced Author: Pavel Tavoda Version: 5.7 Karma: 26/8 Imported from: Tip#1031

If you would like to embed VIM inside your java application I found, that best way how to do it, is java terminal emulation. Download jta26.jar from http://javassh.org/space/start . Then start VIM from your java program and redirect STDIN and STDOUT to and from terminal emulator. For some unknown reason you have to use VIM without GUI support, mean GUI support isn't compiled into binary. You have to use pure terminal VIM. If you are interested in more details please send me an email to firstname.secondname AT gmail.com.
