Patches for Vim - Vi IMproved 7.2

The files in this directory contain source code changes to fix

problems in released versions 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.  If you did not unpack the

extra archive, you may want to skip patches marked with "(extra)".

Similarly for the "lang" archive.  Or ignore errors for missing files.

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 < 7.2.001

        patch -p0 < 7.2.001

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.
