Nikola Install the sources, see (W32) http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compile.htm (U*x) http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm compile Vim, then run make test. I don't know if it works on Windows. What is your problem? After I compile Vim, if src/vim --version |more (on Unix-like systems) or src\vim --version |more (on Dos-like systems) src\gvim :version :q can be run, and shows the correct version, the correct featureset (Normal, Big, Huge, etc.), and the +features dear to me, I usually regard the build as correct (until or unless I come aross a bug), and I install the result of the compile to where it will have to run (after closing any Vim process). You may also want to redirect the output from the (compile) make to a logfile and examine that at leisure. Some warnings are unavoidable, like those for (IIRC) the Perl and Python interfaces. The current release/patchlevel is 7.0.178. Best regards, Tony.

I don't have problem with Vim :) I'm doing research on system manageability, and I'm experimenting how an app behaves on different systems/different versions. Vim is sth I use every day, so I thought starting from it. make test is something I really appreciate, since I can run then automatically. I would also need older versions. How to/where from obtain them? Cheers, Nikola
Re: v107m of netrw available -- needs testing!

I've even tried it with your stated preference of fo=tcroqn. vim somefile :Explore somedirectory (select a file) and the resulting formatoption still has tcroqn (I put set fo=tcroqn into my .vimrc for testing). I also tried it using vim -g -c Explore and the formatoption's t was still retained. Are you sure you disabled/removed the older version of netrw? this one gives numerous errors: Error detected while processing function netrw#Explore: line2: E121: Undefined variable: b:netrw_curdir E15: Invalid expression: b:netrw_curdir line 68: E121: Undefined variable: curfile E116: Invalid arguments for function substitute(curfile,'^.*/','','e').'\','cW') E116: Invalid arguments for function search I've got this Explore bug fixed in v107n. And, about vimball: read :help usevimball to find out how to override the use of the runtimepath's first directory as the root for unpacking the vimball. Regards, Chip Campbell
swapping three columns in a file..
Hi All, How to swap the three columns in file without using substitute command? Let us say file with the following contents, //BOF A1 B1 C1 A2 B2 C2 //EOF. Then after swapping the file content should be, //BOF C1 A1 B1 C2 A2 B2 //EOF Thanks Regards, Sasikumar Kandhasamy Project Engineer Wipro Technologies Madivala-1|Bangalore.
