I have installed vim70.
I don't have this environment variable.
The user manual makes a lot of reference to it. Help me.
The standard way to do it is to leave $VIMRUNTIME undefined outside of
Vim. You may, if you want, define $VIM in such a way that $VIM/vim70
(or, for Vim 6.4, $VIM/vim64 etc.) will be the top of the Vim
installation, which (only inside Vim) will be visible as $VIMRUNTIME.
On Windows, one typical setting for Vim is C:\PROGRA~1\vim. On Unix, you
can see a "fallback for $VIM" near the middle of the output of
":version"; that "default location" is often good enough; and if it is,
you don't even need to define $VIM outside of Vim.
