What is the difference between gVim and gVim easy?

问题

The question is self explanatory, but I haven't found a single resource that explains what the difference is after an hour of searching. After poking around a little bit in both, it appears that gVim and gVim easy are identical.

回答1:

Gvim easy is started and locked in insert-mode (every character you type is printed like a simple notepad).

Standard gvim starts in normal mode and you have to toggle between normal/insert like all other vim.

From help:

    Easy mode.  Implied for |evim| and |eview|.  Starts with
    'insertmode' set and behaves like a click-and-type editor.
    This sources the script $VIMRUNTIME/evim.vim.  Mappings are
    set up to work like most click-and-type editors, see
    |evim-keys|.  The GUI is started when available.
    {not in Vi}

gVim-Easy, which is installed with gVim, has all the functionality of normal gVim but lacks modes. This is especially useful for begginers and people who do not want to, or do not have the time to, learn how to use gVim. Users can benefit from gVim's superior syntax highlighting and auto-indentation while not having to have to learn the, often deemed complex, command set of gVim in order to edit a simple document. It is recommended that readers of this tutorial at least try to learn how to use gVim in normal mode, the learning curve is steep, but, the benefits in speed and usability this confers is worth the investment.

gVim Easy: gvim.exe -y (pass a parameter y)
gVim: gvim.exe

回答4:

It seems that Insert and Replace are available modes, and command mode is missing. And at first glance it appears to have lost the ability to save a document using keystrokes - the File menu shows only ":w" for Save and without command mode, the command simply isn't there. What isn't shown however is Alt-F followed by S - this works, although also missing is the status line confirmation of the file being written.
