This patch adds vim (Vi IMproved), a very popular text editor based on
vi, to the packages.
I did not specify a license, since vim uses a weird Charityware license;
is that OK ?
WBR,
Cyril Roelandt.

+ "Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text
+editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX
+systems.
+
+Vim is often called a \"programmer's editor,\" and so useful for programming
+that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim
+is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing
+configuration files. ")))
