Let's not make life any harder for semi-modern versions of Windows at

still has approximately one-third market share. Anything before that

settle for Vim 7.3

I think Flexwiki is dead or nearly so. It seems like mapping .wiki files to

On a related note, it would be nice if it were possible to supply a
set of alternatives to guifont, as in CSS. GVim would work its way
down the list until it found one that was present on the system; e.g.,
:set guifont=Consolas:h12,Monaco:h12,Andale_Mono:h13,Lucida_Cons

More specifically, qsort expects a signed int. If MyCompare returns
1E37 - 1E20, it's probably not going to have a happy ending.

Better, I think, to return (long_u) min(0xFF00, msex.ullAvailPhys

An autocmd, selectbuf#BufNew, is calling set cpo&vim. Vim is freeing
invalid memory for the old value from did_set_string_option. The
previous value was (probably) set by vim72a\menu.vim.
I think get_varp_scope() is at fault.

I'm not saying that it can't be done, but it moves the Vim codebase in
a direction that it's never gone before.

LONGLONG should be defined in all recent versions of the compiler and

so.
