||
Hello Vim users,
|
||
|
||
Announcing: Vim (Vi IMproved) version 7.3
|
||
|
||
This is a minor release of Vim. It consists of Vim 7.2 plus all
|
||
patches, updated runtime files and some more, see below. It has been
|
||
two years since the 7.2 release, thus it's not that "minor". But not
|
||
"major" either. Something in between, don't know how to call that.
|
||
|
||
The most notable additions since 7.2:
|
||
- Persistent undo and undo for reload
|
||
- Blowfish encryption, encryption of the swap file
|
||
- Conceal text
|
||
- Lua interface
|
||
- Python 3 interface
|
||
|
||
Once you have installed Vim 7.3 you can find all the details about the
|
||
changes since Vim 7.2 with:
|
||
:help version-7.3

||

|
||
|
||
If you want to help Vim development, discuss new features or get the

||

||
Reporting bugs
|
||
--------------
|
||
|
||
Send them to <vim-...@vim.org>. Please describe the problem precisely.
|
||
All the time spent on answering mail is subtracted from the time that is
|
||
spent on improving Vim! Always give a reproducible example and try to
|
||
find out which settings or other things influence the appearance of the
|
||
bug. Try starting without your own vimrc file: "vim -u NONE". Try
|
||
different machines if possible. See ":help bugs" in Vim. Send me a
|
||
patch if you can!
|
||
|
||
Happy Vimming!
