I was checking today, out of curiosity, the latest Vim code at github and I saw that there are definitions about AmigaOS 4, in a few places, like here.
If I understood right, the AmigaOS installation code is mostly for older version of Vim, maybe 5.x, and based on INSTALLami.txt it works with SAS C, Lattice and Dice compilers.
I saw the version 7.1 at the OS4Depot, but I wonder, if someone is working on v8.1 AmigaOS 4 port?
There is a morphos and aros port of latest VIM using MUI (so it full blown with all the bells and stuff, see screenshots on main page):
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spaden/
Year ago i was able to build it , but it crashes on run and i wasn't able to spend time to fix it normally. Always wanted to do it, as i have expirience to port mui based stuff from morphos and aros.
Author (sTix) is pretty helpfull as well, and happy to integrate amigaos4 ifdefs once all will be done.
As you can see last commit from him are 3 days ago, so its pretty active and current vesion are 8.1
I hope to deal with port soon.
Thanks kas1e for your reply. Is this the same with the aminet version http://aminet.net/search?query=vim_8.1
It would be great if you could bring us this port. Surely, a good tool for developers.

@kas1e
I would like to thank you for this port. It looks awesome and surely is a very good tool/editor for AmigaOS 4.
Thank you again for all the hard work.
