New issue 11 by lovet...@21cn.com: VIM shell extension added LANG
environment variable to explorer.exe
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=11
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. reboot
2. right click any file
3. after menu popup, LANG environment variable (with value zh_CN) is
injected to explorer.exe (which will affect any new child process of it)
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
-
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
vim73_46 on Windows XP Professional (Simplified Chinese).
Please provide any additional information below.
I'm not sure why VIM need a LANG environment variable to be put to
explorer.exe, because even without LANG environment, vim display the
correct GUI language (for me, it's simplified chinese).
Add a LANG environment variable to explorer.exe will affect all new child
process, I often use Cygwin 1.7, LANG will affect Cygwin to display
Chinese/multibytes characters.
If LANG environment is needed by vim.exe/gvim.exe, why not putenv to
vim.exe/gvim.exe itself instead of explorer.exe?
