As you may have noticed, I have added the persistent undo patch yesterday. The core of this was done by Jordan Lewis. This means you can make changes to a file, quit Vim, edit that same file and undo the previous changes.
I have added a few things, such as computing a hash of the text to verify it is equal to when the undo file was written. That works better than a timestamp. I also changed it to put the undofile with the edited file. That should work, as writing a file usually means the undofile can be written there as well. It's possible to change this with the 'undodir' option. Note that despite the checks it might still be possible that the undo information is corruped and changes your text in unexpected ways. Be careful. I have also changed the MS-Windows installer. It should now work in Windows 7. I also tried making the "Edit with Vim" context menu work for 64 bit systems, but it doesn't appear to work yet. You can try the self-installing executable: ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/gvim73a.exe This is just a snapshot, I won't keep this updated. I used a different compiler, the MSVC 2010 Express version, but it doesn't look like that changed anything. -- >From "know your smileys": @:-() Elvis Presley /// Bram Moolenaar -- [email protected] -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ download, build and distribute -- http://www.A-A-P.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
