Win64 Vim 7.2.182

Vim

I updated the Win64 binaries of Vim at vim-win3264 from Vim 7.2.000 to 7.2.182.

I'm amazed that the original binaries were downloaded over 11,000 times since last August.

Any idea if/when Bram will roll your Win64 support into the "official" Vim distribution/installers?  I did a cursory search of the mailing lists and didn't find any discussion of it.

64-bit is becoming common very quickly; this seems like a no-brainer.

Thanks!

Bram long ago accepted all the patches that I've submitted for Win64 support. He's just not building it himself.

I effectively am the official Win64 Vim builder, just as the MacVim project is the de facto canonical Mac build.

OK, that makes sense.  Thanks for the reply!
