This note was to help out with Alma Linux, so I have not tried on other
distros as yet, but using vim in server mode is a failure as bad as
emacs. It prints a message correctly claiming input is not from a
terminal and hangs, and then, weirdly, it hangs evince as well which has
to be forced to quit. Not exactly a happy state.
That's on vim compiled from the latest source, version 9.0.381.
Personally I don't use Alma Linux, was just doing this for the OP of the
thread about Frescobaldi alternatives. But I am getting the impression
that while Alma Linux is a great enterprise class server system, it may
not be the optimal choice for Lilypond. Nevertheless, I will continue to
study the matter.
