The online help covers all versions of Vim, including those (if any)
,which features that you excluded at compile-time.

To see if the 'backupcopy' option is included, type (in Vim and in Normal mode)

        :echo exists('+backupcopy')

followed by Enter. The answer is normally 0 or 1. 0 means No, anything
else (normally 1) means Yes.

Best regards,
Tony.
