The author of VIM/GVIM has passed away

Bram Moolenaar, the author of the VIM editor, passed away on 3 August 2023.

Bram dedicated a large part of his life to Vim, the 'successor' of the UNIX editor 'vi', hence its name Vi Improved.

According to the Vim maillist, Bram was suffering from a medical condition that progressed quickly over the last few weeks.

RIP Bram and thank you for all your dedication to VIM.

Adri

PS Many of my posts, all programming and all manual edits of my local configuration files for BOINC are being done with VIM.
