kmail is not opening files in vim

[Justin Denick]

I'm sure gvim can be called the same way, but I don't use gvim so I couldn't
test it out.

The script your using is really more of a hack than a fix. All it does is
call up konsole (the KDE terminal) and asks it to execute a command, (vim
$1) where '$1' is the first option on the "command line" in your case it is
the name of the file you are trying to open.
