At some point, vim-lite auto-enabled "visual" mode when selecting text with= the mouse. Having used vim-lite from ports for many years out of the box, I was very annoyed especially since the upstream documentation is horrible, at least f= or non participating developers. Recently, the out-of-box config additionally resulted in a ESC delay (made cursor keys behaving differently until timeout passed ?!?), which made vim-= lite completely unusable for me. Lots of confusing blogs/sources mentioned different solutions/things to bla= me.=20 After I spent a decent amount of time trying to find a reason why I'm force= d to manually intercept to get vim back to the last-15-years-behaviour, I spent = more time looking at competitors =E2=80=93 with only joe fitting my CLI needs. = But I'm quiet quick with vi for my tasks and don't see a chance ever reaching the s= ame efficiency with joe (jmacs). So I went back to vim and decided to create an inofficial vim7 port, to avo= id any upcoming operational surprises.=20 Simply checked out r422333, the last 7-version (7.4.2367 which already had = the visual-mode defaults.vim, introduced at any point after 7.4.1832) and incorporated the "official" patches for CVE-2016-1248 and CVE-2017-5953. Most important, the FreeBSD port specific vimrc was extended by 'let skip_defaults_vim =3D 1'. The latter is one easy solution to get rid of the 2016 introduced heavy usa= ge regression, at least for vim-lite users. So I'm voting for inclusion in editors/vim. Whether people might need/want vim7 in the official ports tree is beyond my scope. If so, here's a skeleton to start (will add different attachments in separa= te comment, since I can only attach one file here?). Decision should be descu= ssed with recent and current vim maintainers I guess. -harry --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
