Help HN: Vim text editor install on mac

Seems like it. I just typed "vim" at a Terminal prompt in Leopard and was greeted with VIM 7.0.234.

I certainly didn't install that myself -- I use emacs on my local machines, although I admit I've been struggling to learn enough vi to do editing on remote servers.

I guess it's theoretically possible that vim came along with Xcode or MacPorts, but I can't imagine what I might have installed that had vim as a dependency.

This is my favorite version of vim on OS X. It uses Cocoa and is fast. There's a pre-built .app in the tarball on that site and a script to launch macvim from the command line.
