How can I use VIM on N810?
I installed it successfully and it is shown in the app manager, but in none of the menus even not in Extras.

What am I doing wrong ?

It's a command line app, type "vim" at the prompt.

In the download page the screenshot shows it as a GUI app.
I mean viM not the good old VI.

Think again. It's vim not gvim, which on desktop environment has a gui whereas vim is still command line application, that is to be run in term.

Look at the picture in the download page, vim is running on Xtermimal - osso_xterm.
ui != gui
