I set the editor to vim in the CIW but when I try to open up a text
view it doesn't work. Any ideas on how to get vim to work?

\i editor="vim"
\t "vim"
\p >
\i ddsServOpen("worklib" "opan" "xx" "edit")
\o *WARNING* editFile: Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal
\o Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal

Use:

editor = "vim -g"

Or if vim hasn't been compiled with the gui option:

editor="xterm -e vim"
