sort of (the versioning with letter suffixes seems to be acceptable to
everyone -- though I recall quite a while ago a packager refusing to
do anything with vile unless it ended ".0" -- and I've seen no real
need recently for a "stable release").

"current" is where you should look:

vile source links

2022-10-21 Thread Wayne Cuddy via discussions concerning the vile text editor
On the vile download page:

https://www.invisible-island.net/vile/vile.html#download

The links for the source downloads:

https://www.invisible-island.net/archives/vile/vile.tar.gz

https://www.invisible-island.net/datafiles/release/vile.tar.gz

These both seem to point to the older 9.8 release instead of 9.8w. Is
this intentional?

Should I be using another link to access to latest source?
