winterm.vim

Deprecation

Quite short after the creation of this plugin, the functionality was introduced into native vim. You should be able to use vim in Windows Terminal without this package now.

Description

A plugin to set the cursor shape in Windows Terminal. Use this instead of setting termcaps, which are not supported on Windows.

Install

winterm.vim's Issues

E364 when using base libcursor.dll on 64-bit Vim

I apologize if this isn't proper etiquette, but I'd like to mention this issue to others who may have it. After installing the plugin, Vim returns E364 on startup when using the installed libcursor.dll. My guess is that this occurs because I am running a 64-bit distribution of Vim, but I have little experience with C so I honestly have no clue.

I was able to fix the error by simply compiling the included libcursor.c file into a new .dll, allowing the plugin to work as intended.
