Need to get Gvim on Linux enterprise

I have a linux Enterprise Server Version 3 (ES) . It does not have Gvim on it. Can someone tell me how I can get Gvim on it please. I have spent a fair bit of time researching this and have not figured it out. I am probably missing something simple.

Haven't used RHEL before. You are sure the package list does not contain vim-X11 (maybe you can search the discs for a similarly named RPM)? At the end, if everything fails, with the libraries available and a compiler, you can always download the sources from vim.org and compile it manually.
