vim-gtk3 on WSL 2 Ubuntu 20.04 in Windows 11
WSL 2 Ubuntu 20.04 inside Microsot Windows 11:
Working within the gvim (e.g., issuing the command :ls within gvim) of (A) has very fast response; same command within gvim of (B) is very sluggish (e.g., output list of :ls comes out very slowly).
A) $ sudo apt-get install vim-gtk3
# VIM - Vi IMproved 8.1 (2018 May 18, compiled Feb 01 2022 09:16:32)
# Included patches: 1-2269, 3612, 3625, 3669, 3741
# Modified by <email address hidden> #<-- what was done here?
# Compiled by <email address hidden>
# Huge version with GTK3 GUI.
$ gvim
B) # git clone https:/
$ make clean
$ make distclean
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/vim --enable-gui --enable-gui=gtk3 --with-
$ make && make test
$ sudo make install
$ /opt/vim/bin/gvim
Question: what patches need to be applied to vim's sources and how must it be built to mimic what was done for the default vim-gtk3 installed by apt?
