The build script automatically builds from the default Vim .tbz, lang, and extra tarballs and then updates from the FTP site. (In case anyone is interested in the details, our build script is licensed under the GPL and available here: http://cream.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cream/misc/vim-build.bat ) This process favors automation and repeatability, so there are no humans checking timestamps to verify version problems. Since our build machine was just re-built from scratch, it appears to me that there may be file date/version problems between the Vim sources and the FTP site. We've had problems with this before, particularly related to netrw, can any of the file/FTP site maintainers comment? -- Steve Hall [ digitect dancingpaper com ] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
