I can't talk for other people, but I can guess. I think the most "popular" ways of getting Vim (in no particular order) are the following: * Find a precompiled executable with its runtime files, and use that. * git and make * hg and make Maybe some people are still keeping up the source the old hard way, by downloading a source archive and then using patch and make; but the patches don't include runtime files, so even these ought to set up either a git clone or a Mercurial clone, and then use make in it, IMHO it is less error-prone, and in particular it keeps the runtime files up-to-date. If anyone is using AAP to build Vim (I never did), please speak up. Best regards, Tony. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
