How to install vim into Minix3?

Question

I should install vim into Minix. But I couldnt find any useful information on the net. I've just installed Minix on VirtualBox. So I am a beginner on Minix.

Do you have an idea how to install it?

Answer 1

Look at this site, then navigate to your version and architecture: ftp://ftp.minix3.org/pub/minix/packages/

For example, minix 3.3.0 on i386: ftp://ftp.minix3.org/pub/minix/packages/3.3.0/i386/editors/vim-7.3.762.tgz

Answer 2

Is it not possible to compile from source? With a half-decent machine, compiling Vim doesn't take very long.

Though this tutorial on how to compile Vim is geared towards Ubuntu, it's not to hard to adopt to other *nix systems.
