Makes perfect sense to me now, thank you! Is there a happy medium that could be used on the Wiki? Xcode will not pick up changes to the Vim runtime files. Any time that files in the runtime/ directory are changed, you must run "xcodebuild clean" before the usual "xcodebuild". Just a suggestion there.
