Hi,

	I'm porting vim to kde. I've spoken to Bram Moolenaar and different
people from kde about that some times ago.

	I'm working from vim 5.6. (don't have tried latest development
version..). I'm about to release a first 'draft' soon, and I think this is the
apropriate place to speak about this.

	I use latest KDE2.0 cvs for the development.

	I will probably make a small homepage for this to gather information on
it until it (eventually) reach the main vim cvs.

My main concerns are :
====================

	autoconf/automake stuff : as I'm not familiar with those, I've harcoded
the KDE stuff into configure.in ( i've tried to do it as nicely as possible,
though), I will surely need help with this (qt/kde-specific acinclude tests and
so on).

	Test on different platform. I use Suse/pc and  linuxPPC/ppc for
developping. I could make some test on solaris, but I for sure won't be able to
test it on _all_the different platform available for kde and vim.

	Please give me any feedback. Those who have read this mail until here
are rewarded with a screenshot :-) :

vim people :
	Oh. I intend not only to develop it, but also to take care of the
maintenance. I _won't_ dissapear as soon as it's finished. I know Bram is
fearing this kind of comportement.

kde people :
	The vim kpart-editor will follow then. I want to use vim under
kmail/kdevelop and konqueror (even read-only, I want colorization for
visualization under konquy)

greatings,
Thomas
