3This file contains instructions for compiling Vim. If you already have an
4executable version of Vim, you don't need this.

Bram Moolenaard7a08a22016-01-03 22:51:16 +0100[diff] [blame]6First, make sure you've installed Xcode or CommandLineToots. If not, open a
7terminal and do

321.1 Carbon interface (default)
33
34 You can compile vim with the standard Unix routine:
Bram Moolenaarfd2ac762006-03-01 22:09:21 +0000[diff] [blame]35 cd .../src
36 make
Bram Moolenaard7a08a22016-01-03 22:51:16 +0100[diff] [blame]37 make test
38 sudo make install
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000[diff] [blame]39
Bram Moolenaard7a08a22016-01-03 22:51:16 +0100[diff] [blame]40 "make" will create a working Vim.app application bundle in the src
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000[diff] [blame]41 directory. You can move this bundle (the Vim.app directory) anywhere
Bram Moolenaard7a08a22016-01-03 22:51:16 +0100[diff] [blame]42 you want. Or use "make install" to move it to /Applications.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000[diff] [blame]43
Bram Moolenaar7e8fd632006-02-18 22:14:51 +0000[diff] [blame]44 You need at least Xcode 1.5 to compile Vim 7.0.
45
Bram Moolenaarfd2ac762006-03-01 22:09:21 +0000[diff] [blame]46 Configure will create a universal binary if possible. This requires
47 installing the universal SDK (currently for 10.4).
48
49 To overrule the architecture do this before running make:
50
Bram Moolenaarc9b4b052006-04-30 18:54:39 +0000[diff] [blame]51 ./configure --with-mac-arch=intel
Bram Moolenaarfd2ac762006-03-01 22:09:21 +0000[diff] [blame]52 or
Bram Moolenaarc9b4b052006-04-30 18:54:39 +0000[diff] [blame]53 ./configure --with-mac-arch=ppc
Bram Moolenaarfd2ac762006-03-01 22:09:21 +0000[diff] [blame]54
Bram Moolenaar7e8fd632006-02-18 22:14:51 +0000[diff] [blame]55
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000[diff] [blame]561.2 X-Windows or Plain Text
57
58 If you do not want the Carbon interface, you must explicitly tell
59 configure to use a different GUI.
60
Bram Moolenaarfd2ac762006-03-01 22:09:21 +0000[diff] [blame]61 cd .../src
Bram Moolenaar7e8fd632006-02-18 22:14:51 +0000[diff] [blame]62 ./configure --disable-darwin --enable-gui=gtk2
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000[diff] [blame]63 make; make install
64
