Comment #2 on issue 11 by christia...@gmail.com: VIM shell extension added
LANG environment variable to explorer.exe
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=11
Looking at the current code, I don't see how this would be fixed.
The patch apparently touches code that is responsible for launching
gvim.exe, but LANG= is injected into explorer.exe already at this point.
LANG= will leak into ALL OTHER processes started by Explorer, which also
hosts the Start Menu, therefore the LANG set by the Vim Shell Extension is
very likely to leak into ALL OTHER processes started by the user.
The environment of the calling process (which can be a random process
hosting a Common Controls Dialog or a shell view or something else) is
never safe to modify.
Please consider not setting LANG= at all.
(I could not test patch 276 as I do not have a vim build environment here
and the prebuilt binary is patch level 46.)
