Are you trying to write out TODO.vim, or does it already exist on the interwebs? I asked this because it would be nice to read the code and see what is really going on here. Without this, here are a few tips

• You can search the help for any error you see, :h 484 should tell you give you more information on the first error
• First error looks like you're trying to load a file which doesn't exist. From the file path, looks like you have your home path scoped under Vim's runtime path. May wanna check that
• 492 is an error when you call some function that doesn't exist. Note, if you define a function in a script with vim9script, you'd have to make that function global by defining it as def g:FuncName

Hopefully this helps

Thanks for your help but I think I just want to start over, if that is possible?

Is there a way I can uninstall vim, and then download vim to a directory of my choosing?

Thank you

Norman

You certainly can! This would depend on your OS and your package manager.

You can always download the source and build it in any folder you want.
