Patches for Vim - Vi IMproved 7.4

The files in this directory contain source code changes to fix problems

in a released version of Vim.  Each file also contains an explanation of

the problem that is fixed, like the message that was sent to the vim-dev

maillist.

The best is to apply the patches in sequence.  This avoids problems when

a patch depends on a previous patch. 

Before patching, change to the top Vim directory, where the "src" and

"runtime" directories are located.

Depending on the version of "patch" that you use, you may have add an

argument to make it patch the right file:

        patch -p < 7.4.001

        patch -p0 < 7.4.001

After applying a patch, you need to compile Vim.  There are no patches

for binaries.

Checksums for the patch files can be found in the file MD5.
