E433: No tags file

Normally the tags file for help should have been installed when you
installed Vim.
In that gvim "with Scheme", what are the answers to
:echo $VIMRUNTIME
:verbose set helpfile?
? Do you see the helpfile contents when you do
:exe 'view' &helpfile
and/or
:view $VIMRUNTIME/doc/help.txt
? If all the above look normal (compare with the results of the same
commands in your Vim "with Python")
:helptags $VIMRUNTIME/doc
(which may take several minutes to run) might cure the problem.
BTW, you ought to be able to compile a Vim version with both Scheme and
Python (if, of course, you have both MzScheme and Python interpreters on
the same machine). See
