Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing.
It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems.
Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that
many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is
perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing
configuration files.

===> The following configuration options are available for vim-lite-8.0.1427:
DEFAULT_VIMRC=on: Install bundled vimrc as default setting
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Rename editors/vim-lite to editors/vim-console. The vim-console port isn't
actually any lighter---it's built with exactly the same feature-set as
the main vim port. The only difference is lack of gtk20 GUI, and the
language bindings are off by default.
An UPDATING entry is included.
Add editors/vim-tiny.
By popular request, this is a slave port that installs only the vim binary. It
has
no dependencies, produces a 1 MB package with a 3 MB installed footprint, and
is unable to do anything except edit files. It contains no help files, no
runtime
files, no syntax highlighting, no filetype-specific indenting, non-US keymaps,
macros, or spell-checking.
vim-tiny is designed for minimal installs, and is the wrong choice for most
users.
Simplify the "lite" package even more
Make the only differences between "lite" and "regular" vim just console
mode and no language bindings. This was already the case (the default
feature set is "huge"), but now it's explicit.
Add a pkg-descr to vim-lite that explains the above, and remove some
text in the pkg-descr that makes absolutely no sense.
There's no effective change to generated package, but the port is
getting updated tomorrow anyway.
This will facilitate the future removal at some point of the "lite"
package, so that it can be replaced by a "console" flavour.
While here, remove a variable that was last used in 2001.
Reorganize and simplify the vim Makefile
There should be no changes to the generated packages from this reorganization.
The bulk of the changes involve better leveraging OPTIONS helpers, including
making vim-lite into an OPTION (which is always SLAVEd or EXCLUDEd).
Update vim to 8.0.0019, add GTK3 support, and take maintainership.
Many, many thanks to Sunpoet for all the time he has spent working
on and improving this port!
Many smaller changes in this update as well:
- Languange support was moved into its own OPTIONS group for clarity
(a visual change only; it does not affect the knobs themselves)
- Add LICENSE
- Reorganize and format the Makefile for clarity
- Remove a few pieces of cruft
- Add many missing dependencies for most of the GUI options
- Use better (more robust) build constructs where possible

Move the vimrc into ETCDIR to user may have a look at it.
Now install a minimalistic vimrc without all the controversial options (I hope)
Define a template for port Makefiles to vim automatically creates it in case of
opening a new one
