Most people use vim in two stupid dimensions. But not me. I use it in three:

To run it, install Nim, 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

It's not that hard

no

It's using paravim which has a real copy of vim built in

All of them pretty much

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

Try this: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.6 /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5
