| 10 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 11 | .B eVim |
| 12 | starts |
| 13 | .B Vim |
| 14 | and sets options to make it behave like a modeless editor. |
| 15 | This is still Vim but used as a point-and-click editor. |
| 16 | This feels a lot like using Notepad on MS-Windows. |
| 17 | .B eVim |
| 18 | will always run in the GUI, to enable the use of menus and toolbar. |
| 19 | .PP |
| 20 | Only to be used for people who really can't work with Vim in the normal way. |
| 21 | Editing will be much less efficient. |
| 22 | .PP |
| 23 | .B eview |
| 24 | is the same, but starts in read-only mode. It works just like evim -R. |
| 25 | .PP |
| 26 | See vim(1) for details about Vim, options, etc. |
| 27 | .PP |
| 28 | The 'insertmode' option is set to be able to type text directly. |
| 29 | .br |
| 30 | Mappings are setup to make Copy and Paste work with the MS-Windows keys. |

| 32 | Use CTRL-Q to obtain the original meaning of CTRL-V. |
| 33 | .SH OPTIONS |

| 42 | make a knot in each corner and wear it on your head. |
