How to Install Powerline on windows

[kk]

Hi all
I'm a noob of vim.
I tried to install powerline (Lokaltog/powerline) these days, but still failed.
There is no doc about intallation on windows,so I want to know the steps of install it on windows.

Thanks for your sight and appriciate for any anyhelp.


For now, I download the git zip.  Use "setup.py install" or "setup.py install"
add vimrc"set rtp+=C:\Python33\Lib\site-

packages\Powerline-beta-py3.3.egg\powerline\bindings\vim"

or "set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/powerline/powerline/bindings/vim"
both get error message when run vim.
Error detected while processing function Powerline:
line 3:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>",line 1,in <module>
Error detected while processing function Powerline:
File"c:\Python33\lib\site-packages\poerline\beta\py3.3 XXXXX" line 371,in render
My vim is 7.7.905 with python3 and vundle

Hi friend ,

I use GVIM&Powerline on win7  , but without Python . Here is my steps .

1.Find tar.gz attachment , extract files under "Lokaltog-vim-powerline-d885f90" to your "vimfiles" folder.

2.Install powerline fonts , they are also provided to you.

3. add configuration in vimrc . The last two lines is for my poor Chinese menu , it would become garbled without them,I don't know why:(

you can discard them when use pure English environment.

"Powerline configuration

set encoding=utf-8

set laststatus=2

set guifont=Consolas\ for\ Powerline\ FixedD:h10:cANSI

set t_Co=256

let g:Powerline_symbols = "fancy"

"anti menu garbled

source $VIMRUNTIME/delmenu.vim

source $VIMRUNTIME/menu.vim

Thanks for your reply, but the plugin I want to install is the "new" powerline, not "vim-powerline".(Though I don't know the features of the new one. ^_^)

This is definitely not the full error message it gives you, neither it is a most relevant part. I also do not think XXXXX is really present in the message, and there must be spaces after “File” and comma after line number. Don’t retype messages, there exists :redir.

Sorry for the double post...accidental mouse-click. It may not be clear how to get back startup messages, or other messages not in response to a particular action.

To copy error messages for pasting into another application (like email) you can usually:

:set nomore
:redir @+
:messages
:redir END

Then paste and trim away the unrelated stuff.

Thanks for your help, I don't know how to got the full message before...
It has been so long after this post.
I can't reappear the previous error.
Now all the things I did with powerline is
1.add "NeoBundle 'Lokaltog/powerline',{'rtp':'powerline/bindings/vim'}" in vimrc
2.NeoBundleInstall

This is the new whole error:
