# vimb

Edit config.mk to match your local setup.
Edit config.h to match you personal preferences.
The default Makefile will not overwrite your customised `config.h` with the
contents of `config.def.h`, even if it was updated in the latest git pull.
Therefore, you should always compare your customised `config.h` with
`config.def.h` and make sure you include any changes to the latter in your
`config.h`.

root).
make clean && make
