How to update the runtime files is OS-dependent, but it is usually not much
more than a one-liner. On my SuSE Linux system (with bash), I use

  cd ~/.build/vim/vim70
  rsync -avzcP --delete --exclude="/dos/" ftp.nluug.nl::Vim/runtime/ ./runtime/
  cd src
  make installruntime > ../inst_rt.log 2>&1

If people have Cygwin installed, this is easy too:

cd 'C:\Program Files\Vim\vim70'
rsync -avzcP ftp.nluug.nl::Vim/runtime/dos/ .

But this will not delete obsolete local files.

(the important line is the second one; the third and fourth ones are not
necessary if I compile immediately afterwards). Bill McCarthy (on Windows with
4NT.EXE) uses

  copy /us "ftp://ftp.home.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/dos/*"; c:\vim\vim70\

Method I should work on any Unix-like system, including Cygwin if rsync is
installed. I don't know whether Method II works with CMD.EXE.

No, CMD.EXE is not that good.

Best regards,
