Subject: Re: Anyone compiled VIM 7.3 with 1.9.2 support?

Hi Ned

I have a mac system here also. I don't know why vim on macports is still pre-7.3

In fact it's pretty old as they had the patch-level over 400 before
they desired to increment the version.

Is there a specific reason you need the newer version?

If I have time later I'll test it on my system and write simple
instructions on how to compile it by hand.
