Does anyone have packages for Ubuntu Oneiric of the latest Vim?
Building your own vim from the Mecurial repository is much easier than
you might expect. For Ubuntu start with
sudo apt-get build-dep vim-gnome
then follow Tony's instructions at
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Getting_the_Vim_source_with_Mercurial and
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm
In short, Oneiric's gVim ... doesn't show the menu
bar at all.
Not showing the menu bar is a Unity thing, not vim's fault. Mousing
over the bar at the top of the screen (not the vim window) might,
depending on the invocation of gvim, show you vim's menu bar there.
There's workarounds, by setting an environment variable before
invoking vim. (Unless you are keen on Unity, I suggest defecting to
Kubuntu.)
