Hi,

Now that Mac OS X Lion has been released I have pushed my "lion
branch" to GitHub [1].  I have not yet had much time to think about
Lion + MacVim so this branch does not contain much apart from the
possibility to compile MacVim on Lion and tentative support for Lion's
native full screen (there are still bugs to iron out with respect to
full screen).

NOTE: Ruby support is still broken _when building_ on Lion.  The only
way to get Ruby to work on Lion is to compile _without_ the -O2 flag
(you'll have to manually edit 'src/auto/config.mk').  You have been
warned!  If you want Ruby support on Lion you are advised to run
snapshot 59 until this bug has been fixed [2].  I would gratefully
accept any help with this issue as I know next to nothing about the
Ruby support.  (Otherwise it may take a long time before this gets
fixed.)

NOTE 2:  I have heard concerns that Lion's full screen support is
worse than MacVim's own full screen support.  In the future I may turn
this into a compile time option so that is possible to use the old
style full screen instead of Lion's full screen.  It depends on what
people have to say about it.  My initial reaction to Lion's full
screen support is good however (I particularly like three-finger
swiping between different full screens).

NOTE 3 (unrelated):  pckeyboardhack does not yet support Lion (but it
seems to be on the way).  I'm holding off upgrading my main computer
until I can remap Caps Lock to Esc. ;-)

Eventually the "lion branch" will be merged into master, but for now I
am keeping it separate.

Björn
