I've tried vim73 on windows 2000, it's from someone's compiled version, not

of the vim72 home dir, so,
in vim72
$vim:<path>/vim/
$vimruntime:<path>/vim/vim72
in vim 73
$vim:<path>/vim/vim73
$vimruntime:<path/vim/vim73
is it consistent with the offical one? I think it's not good for that,
because I have to move my .vimrc, .gvimrc and vimfiles/ into vim73 home dir
or do some other trick to make different version shared with the same
script/conf files.
Using my self compiled version of vim73d (latest hg update):
vim: C:\Program Files\Vim
vim runtime: C:\Program Files\Vim\vim73d
which is consistent with previous versions of Vim.

Yes, I also get
$VIM = ...something.../vim (on Linux, /usr/local/share/vim )
$VIMRUNTIME = $VIM/vim73d
which are correct. In the very first few changesets of 73d there was a
glitch, in that the Linux distribution installed itself (when "make
install" was invoked) in $VIM/vim73d but the executable looked for its
runtimes in $VIM/vim73c. This, however, has been corrected.
If the expected $VIM/vim<version> directory is not found, Vim has a
number of fallbacks, including $VIM, which may explain what Yue Wu saw.
This is explained in more detail under
:help $VIM
:help $VIMRUNTIME
The exact value of vim<version> is defined near the end the
src/version.h source file, as the value of the VIM_VERSION_NODOT define.

So when I saw the post to comp.editors, I rushed over to the FTP site to
grab it. So I yank apart the tarball, light x candles, where x= the
vim version multiplied by the md5sum of the source divided by the MAC of
my NIC (8A3FA78155A8A1D346C3C4A), put on black robes, dim the lights,
wave a dead chicken over the hard drive, and summon the power of GNU GCC
with the magic words "make config ; make!".
