Hello Vim users!

I have built a version of Vim 8.0 with all the latest patches. This is
mainly interesting for MS-Windows users who download the binary.

Upgrading to this version is recommended, since it fixes several
problems.

I have renamed the original Vim 8.0 files to "80-002" (it's actually Vim
8.0.002). The new files are both available as as "80" and "80-069". I
first thought that replacing the existing files would be sufficient, but
quickly found that caching causes the old one to be downloaded. I
decided to make both available, so that anyone linking to a "80" file
will get the latest version (once caching catches up).

Since patch 8.0.0029 removed support for older MS-Windows systems, only
MS-Windows XP and later are supported.

Most MS-Windows users will want to get this one:
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/pc/gvim80-069.exe


These files available for download:

sources + runtime files, bzip2 compressed:

Does this include fixes for my last post: "after vim 8 installation, yanking (yy) doesn't work in global command and macros"? I couldn't see anything related on this in the history.
