Indeed you are out of date. I was using netrw 108b until, apparently, yesterday when I updated my runtime files from FTP - that downgraded me to netrw 107. I tested with 107 then restored 108b and tested again. I'm currently running vim/gvim 7.0.182 (patches 179-182 were made available today). You can update your source files from cvs (already at 182) or svn (at 178 but usually updates each evening - it is quite nice). But these only update source - you still need to update the runtime files from FTP - others have posted automatic updating scripts for 'nix and I've posted one for 4nt. Your problems with vimballs is likely due to not updating vimball - it's at version 21 on both the FTP site and Dr Chip's site. I can't confirm you problem with netrw, although I have found a small inconsistency. The first time I use ctrl-h, the "a" map mode is switched to Hidden. Any subsequent ctrl-h, does not change the mode. I think it would be more intuitive to change the mode from normal to hidden, but leave the mode alone if already on hidden or show. -- Best regards, Bill
