Re: Getting point and click going with gvim on Alma Linux

[Andrew Bernard]

This note was to help out with Alma Linux, so I have not tried on other 
distros as yet, but using vim in server mode is a failure as bad as 
emacs. It prints a message correctly claiming input is not from a 
terminal and hangs, and then, weirdly, it hangs evince as well which has 
to be forced to quit. Not exactly a happy state.

That's on vim compiled from the latest source, version 9.0.381.

Personally I don't use Alma Linux, was just doing this for the OP of the 
thread about Frescobaldi alternatives. But I am getting the impression 
that while Alma Linux is a great enterprise class server system, it may 
not be the optimal choice for Lilypond. Nevertheless, I will continue to 
study the matter.
