My OS is Mac OS X 10.4.8, so yes, it is Unix/Linux based.
After I sent my original e-mail, I did think to check where
$VIMRUNTIME was located. I removed all instances of anything vim*
related.
I then attempted the :Nread command and got what I expected... E492:
Not an editor command: Nread...
I then :so % the vimball and checked the runtime location for any
netrw files. None were there.
Is there a way to make direct the installation where to install?
Is there a way to see where the source is installing? or a manual
installation?
Thanks again,
Kevin

I am having some trouble with Netrw in Vim 7.
I had been using it to ftp to a web server and update files.
I recently began receiving the following error(s) when
running :Nread ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/public_html/
ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/public_html/ [not edited] --no lines in buffer--
If I try to edit the a file directly rather than attempting to
navigate a directory, I get the following errors:
***netrw*** ?Invalid command.
***netrw*** file </tmp/v325706/11.html> not readable
I have Netrw v98 and have tried upgrading my version.
I downloaded netrw.vba.gz script version 104, and after removing
all instances of 'anything' netrw*, I sourced the vimball.
Unfortunately after installation I still show v98 and am still
unable to :Nread ftp://...
Any suggestions on what to check or how to proceed would be
greatly appreciated as I love this tool and really miss the
convenience Netrw provides.
Well, netrw v98 has to be coming from somewhere! Are you using
Windows, Linux, or what? The /tmp/... file looks like
a linux location, so I'll use that guess.
Try
cd /usr/local/share/vim/vim70
ls */netrw*
and see if any files show up.
If your vim 7.0 installation isn't there...
vim
:echo $VIMRUNTIME
should show where its hiding (this should work under Windows,
too). Please remove any and all netrw files from that location.
