VIM on Tru64

What is Vim?

VIM (Vi IMproved) is a vi-compatible text editor that runs on nearly every operating system known to humanity. It is fully featured and absolutely compatible with Vim on other operating systems as Unix, OS/2, BeOS or Windows.

Where can I find out more about Vim and VMS?
