- - Onivim Sucks - -
-

Onivim is a ‘modern modal editor’, combining fancy -interface and language features with vim-style modal editing. What’s wrong you -ask?

- -

Apart from buggy syntax highlighting, -broken scrolling and -others, -Onivim is proprietary software. It is licensed under a commercial -end user agreement license, -which prohibits redistribution in both object code and source code formats.

- -

Onivim’s core editor logic (bits that belong to vim), have been separated from -the interface, into libvim. libvim is -licensed under MIT, which means, this ‘extension’ of vim is perfectly in -adherence to vim’s license text! -Outrun Labs are exploiting this loophole (distributing vim as a library) to -commercialize Onivim.

- -

Onivim’s source code is available on GitHub. -They do mention that the source code trickles down to the -oni2-mit repository, which (not yet) contains -MIT-licensed code, 18 months after each commit to the original repository.

- -

Want to contribute to Onivim? Don’t. They make a profit out of your contributions. -Currently, Onivim is priced at $19.99, ‘pre-alpha’ pricing which is 80% off the -final price! If you are on the lookout for an editor, I would suggest using -Vim, charity ware that actually works, and costs $100 lesser.
