- yurifury 16y agoAre you using gvim or the console version? I've found gvim for windows to be fine. http://www.vim.org/download.php#pc http://www.vim.org/download.php#pc
- omh 16y agoReally? I use gvim on Windows all the time. It looks fine - a little 'unixy', but that's practically a feature with Vim.
- edambauskas 16y agoTry a different setup. Which variant of VIM where you using on Windows ? I need to use Windows at work but I am using VIM for my daily development needs. I use Msysgit+Console 2 to get a tabbed shell and use VIM from inside it. I probably used Cygwin to install ctags. I also have gVim but don't use it (one of the reasons -- I don't like the font and haven't found out yet how to change it). I had to play a little bit until I got my setup working. It is not perfect (mouse scroll does not work inside my shell VIM). But it satisfies me.
- sea6ear 16y agoTo change the font in gVim, set guifont in your .vimrc file ex. (from mine): set guifont=Courier_New:h8:b:cANSI However, if you are happy with your current setup, I'm not sure there's a reason to change things just for the gui.
