A joke? Perhaps this is allowed to joke?

No apk contains statically linked mc for arm

Do a good search of this site, I am pretty sure someone already posted a build for the Kindle.
If you find it, add the link to our index pages.

I believe it's in lrizzo's terminal thread.

http://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...3&postcount=24 is one build I believe. unsure if its for your model though.

EDIT: looks like that is for a 3

Hrm.... In the "One more terminal emulator" there is a link posted there(should be somewhere towards the end, I believe it was posted by cscat). At the bottom of the page are some programs built for the KT. I believe baf built them. They include screen, tmux, vim, etc.

Thanks. How to run VIM in xTERM?

[knc1]

Does entering:
vim
at the command line do it (lower case, *nix is case sensitive)?

Sorry, the above did not account for the user install being made without a change in the PATH variable.

If you are in the same directory as vim, do

./vim

And vim should start.

[twobob]

I was going to put that... but thought he was referring to the specifics of vim with 'sh' rather than bash.

IIRC there are a few gotchas that should probably be widely reported via gurgle.

/mnt/us/vim ?

That should work if vim is in /mnt/us.

[twobob]

assuming this is where you put it yes.

Via SSH:

cd /mnt/us
./vim

If something is going to go wrong (i.e. missing config files, bad paths etc) it would happen then. At the point you attempt to run the file.

I suppose you could inject that call into something like kite or launchpad and wrap it in a tidy configured shell. HTH

Vim has started in the terminal, but works incorrectly. Perhaps made ​​an error in the files sh.

start_vim_shell.sh

#!/bin/sh

# modified from xterm
XTERM_EXT=/mnt/us/extensions/xterm
vim_EXT=/mnt/us/extensions/vim
export MB_KBD_CONFIG=${XTERM_EXT}/layouts/keyboard.xml
export XFILESEARCHPATH=${XTERM_EXT}/layouts/Xresources
export PS1="[\W]\\$ "
export PATH=$PATH:/mnt/us/vim

/usr/bin/xset fp+ ${XTERM_EXT}/fonts
/usr/bin/xset fp rehash

${XTERM_EXT}/bin/xterm -name kterm -e ${vim_EXT}/bin/vim_shell.sh &
${XTERM_EXT}/bin/matchbox-keyboard &

vim_shell.sh

#!/bin/sh

sleep 1

size=$(stty size)
set -- $size
h=$(expr $1 - 12)
shift
w=$(expr $@ - 4)

vim -d

-----------------------------

Everything correctly?

[knc1]

The only thing that jumps out at me is the modification of PATH.
The path to VIM should be first on the path list, not added at the tail.
Change the order of that assignment.

Could you be a bit more specific than: "works incorrectly" please?
It is very hard to follow what the trouble is without the specifics.
