Corinna,
I'd love to see a perl-enabled vim, however the requirement for
perl-5.8.0 will not work for me. As you are aware, perl-5.8.0 is *not*
working at all on WinME. Thus, I cannot have my beloved vim require me
to install a broken perl on my machine. I'm trying to debug why
perl-5.8.0 is broken, but still haven't discovered any conclusive evidence.
I don't know if Pierre uses vim, but if he does it is likely to bite him
as well if this happens.
Is there no way to make this modular? Or perhaps offer two types of vim
installs (like emacs-nox & emacs)?
Cheers,
Nicholas
