But this thing is Vim.

  No, it connects to vim via vim's client server mechanism. The docs for it are wrong, because it will work on OS X if you have MacVim set as your default vim because MacVim is compiled with +server. Anyway, I am quite sure this thing will run into all kinds of trouble because of how broken vim is.

    Nope, no +server in default OS X CLI Vim. I'm actually using a combination of their NetBeans communication protocol and raw tty output right now.

      I didn't say default OS X, I said MacVim, which many Mac OS X users use. To say it doesn't work on Macs is wrong when there is MacVim.

        I wrote it in OS X. I'm not sure where you see "doesn't work in OS X". I said it doesn't work in Windows. Quoting the docs: "it's likely to only work in Linux and OS X for the near future" It works out of the box for me in Mavericks. It would actually have a worse time running if you managed to use MacVim on the backend, because it scrapes the status and command lines from terminal output.

          Oh, I misread that. Thanks and sorry.
