Vim 7 on OS X Tiger

1. Download from [http://macvim.org/OSX/](http://macvim.org/OSX/) and follow instructions ( don’t forget to copy files to ~/.vimrc and ~/.gvimrc)
2. Edit .gvimrc and comment out the last lines dealing with color, or you’ll never get a proper colorscheme working :-)
3. Drag the VIM app to your dock for easy activation
4. OS X comes with a VIM that lags a bit from the version you just installed. It means that if you type 

  Salyut:~ ruben$ vim
 

from the terminal, it will invoke the bundled version. On the other hand, if you click on the nice VIM icon in your dock, it will invoke the newer version.

5. You need to move the old vim out of the way, to make space for the new app. Type the following in your terminal:

  Salyut:~ ruben$ sudo mv /usr/bin/vim /usr/bin/vim6
  Salyut:~ ruben$ sudo ln -s /Applications/Vim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim  /usr/bin/vim
 

now when you invoke wim from the terminal, is the same app (minus the GUI) than the one in your dock.

Enjoy

La democracia asediada. Los inicios

El asedio a la Democracia inició el día 2 de diciembre de 2000. Ese día Vicente Fox Quesada tomó posesión como presidente de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos.

Rember, remember, the 1st of September

September 1st, 2006 is the day where democracy in my country went into a comma. The President Vicente Fox Quesada chose to perform a coup against Congress.

He ordered military troops, a couple of thousand strong, to “protect” Congress. A few deputees have been beaten on the streets, and the right to free transit and other civil rights has been suspended in a huge swat of the capital city.

Mexican democracy is very sick, we’ll have to see how it evolves. The fascists, the far-right-wingers have hit her very hard.

I only hope no blood is shed this day.
