gvim

in the actual slitaz64-rolling-core

does not produce some entry in the menu :-((

and can for that reason not be added to the desktop :-(((

what kind of spelling dictionary / dictionary system uses gvim in SliTaz?

Re: gvim

Hi oui,

Strange.

gvim packed with custom .desktop file, you can found its icon under Applications Menu → Accessories:

Desktop file is /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop

You can edit it as root. For example, you can remove deprecated line "Encoding=UTF-8", then save, then open Applications Menu → Accessories and wait few seconds, icon should appear.

Touching your question about spell checker, it is a puzzle!

Looking compilation log: http://cook.slitaz.org/cooker.cgi?pkg=gvim Found none.

Looking souce files (for known letters something about spell checker. Found in the src/spell.c:

[c]* Why doesn't Vim use aspell/ispell/myspell/etc.?
* See ":help develop-spell".[/c]
So, now you can answer yourself your question.

Re: gvim

Hi Aleksej

I did use again my first big install from SliTaz slitaz-rolling-core64.iso    23-Aug-2015 01:03     45M

In that installation, the icon for Gvim is present (nothing to do)

In the other small installation made because of difficulties with the big one, it was not present!

Why? I don't know...

Thand you for your help

Kind regards

Re: gvim

Hi our,

Can you check the .desktop file existence:

[c]ls -l /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop[/c]
And start gvim not using .desktop file using terminal:

[c]gvim[/c]
