Hi Vim on Mac users, I have uploaded a build of MacVim (snapshot 67) based on Vim 7.4a BETA: https://code.google.com/p/macvim/downloads/list This build is for SNOW LEOPARD (10.6) and later versions of OS X. (I will build a version targeted specifically for 10.8 on Monday, most likely.) Björn -- -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist. Do not top-post!
