Unpack three archives: + PC sources + PC runtime + PC language files + You can generate these from the Unix sources and runtime plus the extra + archive (see the Makefile in the top directory). + +2. Go to the src directory and build: + gvim.exe (the OLE version), + vimrun.exe, + install.exe, + uninstal.exe, + xxd/xxd.exe, + +3.

Go to the OleVim directory and build OpenWithVim.exe and SendToVim.exe (or + get them from a binary archive). + +6. Get a "diff.exe" program and put it in the "../.." directory (above the + "vim61" directory, it's the same for all Vim versions). + You can find one in previous Vim versions or in this archive: + http://www.mossbayeng.com/~ron/vim/diffutils.tar.gz + +7.
