- Vim for Debian
- ---------------
-
- 1. The current Debian Vim scripts policy can be found in the vim-doc package
- under /usr/share/doc/vim-common and
- <http://pkg-vim.alioth.debian.org/vim-policy.html/>.
-
- 2. Before reporting bugs, check if the bug also exists if you run vim
- with "vim -u NONE -U NONE". If not, make sure that the "bug" is not
- a result of a setting in your ~/.vimrc before reporting it.

- MzScheme Vim variant
- --------------------
-
- As requested by the current MzScheme maintainer (Ari Pollak <ari@debian.org>),
- a vim-mzscheme variant is not being built. The reasons stated are as follows:
-
- 1) MzScheme does not build on many of Debian's supported architectures.
-
- 2) The MzScheme package is not versioned based on the library.
-
- 3) The MzScheme ABI changes with every upstream version.

- Modeline support disabled by default
- ------------------------------------
-
- Modelines have historically been a source of security/resource vulnerabilities
- and are therefore disabled by default in /usr/share/vim/vimcurrent/debian.vim.
-
- You can enable them in ~/.vimrc or /etc/vim/vimrc with "set modeline".
-
- In order to mimic Vim's default setting (modelines disabled when root, enabled
- otherwise), you may instead want to use the following snippet:
-
- if $USER != 'root'
- set modeline
- else
- set nomodeline
- endif
-
- The securemodelines script from vim.org (and in the vim-scripts package) may
- also be of interest as it provides a way to whitelist exactly which options
- may be set from a modeline.
