How to update the runtime files is OS-dependent, but it is usually not much
more than a one-liner. On my SuSE Linux system (with bash), I use
cd ~/.build/vim/vim70
rsync -avzcP --delete --exclude="/dos/" ftp.nluug.nl::Vim/runtime/ ./runtime/
cd src
make installruntime > ../inst_rt.log 2>&1
(the important line is the second one; the third and fourth ones are not
necessary if I compile immediately afterwards). Bill McCarthy (on Windows with
4NT.EXE) uses
copy /us "ftp://ftp.home.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/dos/*" c:\vim\vim70\
Method I should work on any Unix-like system, including Cygwin if rsync is
installed. I don't know whether Method II works with CMD.EXE.
Best regards,
Tony.
