Cream is a configuration of the famous Vim text editor that makes it easier to use, like an Apple- or Windows-style text editor. It uses Vim's own extensibility to improve menus, keyboard shortcuts, and editing behavior. Cream seamlessly maintains Vim's insertmode to access all the power of the original Vim plus many custom Cream extensions.

Recent releases


Changes: This is a minor release that includes the new context sensitive Omni-completion feature from Vim 7. Also added or revised are a new GPG encryption add-on, highlighting of URLs and email addresses, opening of URLs under the cursor in a Web browser (Shift+Enter), typing tutor improvements, and a new Matrix color scheme.


Changes: This is a minor release that adds three common keyboard shortcuts, an updated French translation for menus, better Apple/Mac behavior, and improvements to the Email Prettyfier and Slide Generator add-ons. Cream is now distributed under the newest version of the GNU General Public License, now version 3.


Changes: This is a minor release that coordinates Cream with recent Vim versions. In addition to requiring at least Vim 7.0, this release uses only a single session, and has some new tab controls in the Window menu. Vim modeline handling has been improved.


Changes: This is an incremental release and fixes some minor bugs. An option was added to turn off the status line. Another addition is the Slide Generator add-on. Relying on ImageMagick's convert utility, it converts a directory of Web-compatible images (.jpg, .gif, and .png) into a Web page index of small thumbnails that link to the full size image.


Changes: This major release is a Vim 7 feature preview. It features a new spell check system with suggested alternate spellings and a tabbed document interface. Other updates include improved backwards compatibility with older versions of Vim (back to version 6.1), new visual indicators of Settings and Preferences menu items, improved startup speed, the ability to find the next occurrence of a selected word (F3), an improved insert character list, and correct middle mouse pasting behavior.
