title: Overriding system vim on Mac
body: <p>I installed macvim via <code>brew install macvim --override-system-vim</code>.  All appears to be well.  When I do an <code>ls -lart</code> on <code>/usr/local/bin</code> here is what I get for the symlinks relative to <code>vim</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>vimex -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/vimex      
  vimdiff -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/vimdiff
  vim -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/vim
  view -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/view
  vi -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/vi
  mvimex -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/mvimex
  mvimdiff -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/mvimdiff
  mvim -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/mvim
  mview -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/mview
  gvimex -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/gvimex
  gvimdiff -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/gvimdiff
  gvim -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/gvim
  gview -&gt; ../Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/gview
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Additionally, running <code>which vim</code> yields <code>/usr/local/bin/vim</code>.  However, when I run <code>vim</code> from terminal I get version <code>7.3</code> rather than <code>7.3.754</code> that I get when I run <code>/usr/local/Cellar/macvim/7.3-66/bin/vim</code> directly.  What am I missing here, as it is obviously not the same.</p>
