README
## Vim³
Most people use vim in two stupid dimensions. But not me. I use it in three:
To run it, [install Nim](https://nim-lang.org/install.html), and from this repo do:
```
nimble run vim3
```Once you're ready to start using it as your main editor, do:
```
nimble install paravim
nimble install
```As long as `~/.nimble/bin` is on your PATH, you will now be able to open files like this:
```
vim3 path/to/myfile.txt
```## Q & A
### How do i acquire your power?
It's not that hard
### How do i stop the cube from spinning
no
### I don't even have vim installed, how is this possible?
It's using [paravim](https://github.com/paranim/paravim) which has a real copy of vim built in
### Which OS does it work on?
All of them pretty much
### Why can't i run it on linux?
Could be you need opengl libraries, try `sudo apt install xorg-dev libgl1-mesa-dev`
You might also need to do `sudo apt install libtinfo5`
### I use arch btw
Try this: `sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.6 /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5`
