Download Vim 7.4

Version 7.4 of Vi IMproved, or Vim, has been released. This universal editor was once developed by Bram Moolenaar for the Commodore Amiga, but is now also available for Unix, Linux, OS X, OS/2, DOS and Windows. Although the previous version saw the light of day almost three years ago, Bram does not want to call the new version a major release. The main changes can be found in the announcement.
