In reply to Francesca. @Francesca, Thanks for pointing out, yes it is lowercase 'l'. Corrected in the article...

The follow-up to my initial question: It seems that it is a typo here. I checked on the GitHub Repo and to move right is indeed lowercase 'L' & not 'i' as you have written here above:-) NM...this game is cool. I love VIM!!!

I was wondering if the command to move right is 'l' (lowercase L), instead of 'i'? As i is 'insert' mode in VIM. It would be hard to learn this and then have to re-learn with lowercase L. Thanks.

In reply to Illia. @Illia, Please install the required Curses (graphics library) package on your Linux distribution, before compiling the PacVim.

$ sudo apt install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev  [On Ubuntu/Debian]
# yum install ncurses-devel                          [On CentOS/RHEL]
# dnf install ncurses-devel                          [On Fedora]
