Hi

I'm using gvim 7.3 on WinXP.  When the environment variable LANG is
not EN, say DE for German, the menu and menu items are correctly
displayed in German as well as the error messages.  The menu entries
are also fully functional. However tear off menus are not working.
Instead I'm getting the following:

Rei<df>e dieses Men<fc>  ab
E337: Men<fc>  nicht gefunden -<fc>berpr<fc>fe Men<fc>-Name

(Translation:
   Tear off this menu
   E337: Menu not found - Check menu name)

The problem arose after the upgrade to 7.2 or 7.3, AFAIC.  I've always
been using gvim in German and it used to work until the upgrade.

I wasn't able to find a solution either in the vim help or via Google.
Does anybody know how to repair this?


This seems to be a Windows-only problem: Works for me in gvim 7.3.226 with GTK2 GUI on Linux64.

Experiment 1.
1. Start gvim with my usual vimrc (which sets :lang mess C)
--- gvim comes up in English.
2. :lang de_DE.UTF-8
3. :runtime delmenu.vim
--- Menubar disappears
4. :runtime menu.vim
--- Menubar reappears in German
5. Open a menu then click its tear-off bar
--- Teared-off menu opens.

Experiment 2.
1. Start gvim with the following command-line (all on one line):
LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.UTF-8 gvim -u /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/vimrc_example.vim
--- gvim opens with German splash screen and menus
2. Open a menu and click its tear-off bar.
--- Teared-off menu opens.

I've tried a few additional variants of the same, in all cases the tear-off widget works OK for me.


Best regards,
Tony.
