There exist out there several different 'distraction-free editors' for writing: these provide a fullscreen, minimal environment with the goal of forcing oneself to focus on the task at hand.I want to do something similar with vim. While I can simply fire it up in a terminal and then press F11 to put it to fullscreen, I also want to limit the width to around 75 characters and centre the area I'm using.Think about how word processors provide a virtual page in the middle of the program -- that's what I want. Sort of.Is there a way to do this, either with a special terminal program or with some setting in vim? If one of the GUI vim programs have this capability, or if there's any other way of doing it that I haven't thought of, that would also be a useful answer.
Looking for a centred, full-screen terminal
terminal;vim;fullscreen
If you start screen in a maximized xterm (Alt-Enter in xterm) as:screen -c this-fileWhere this-file contains:focusminsize 75 25split -vfocusonlysplit -vsplit -vfocusYou'll get a center region of width 75.
