title: Linux gvim vs vim
body: <p>is there a difference between gvim and vim on a linux machine ?</p>
  
  <p>I installed an enhanced version of VIM editor which includes recent enhancements:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>vim-enhanced-2:7.2.411-1.8.el6(x86_64)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>And after installation, I could see <em>.viminfo</em> and <em>.vimrc</em> in my home directory. I even made changes on <em>.vimrc</em> and intentionally put some wrong codes in there and it errored out. So, I know for sure that it is calling <em>.vimrc</em> upon invoking vim.
  I also had a <em>.vimrc</em> from past for GVIM, and I copied that file into this new <em>.vimrc</em>, and again there is no complain.</p>
  
  <p>So far so good.</p>
  
  <p>But now, when I open VIM, it opens the file in the terminal! And it is not opening a new window for GVIM. But I can see that it has almost all of GVIM capabilities!</p>
  
  <p>How could I make this open in a separate window when I open a file? </p>
