- I just started using vim (on nt) and love it (I dumped mks's version). The
- URL http://www.halcyon.com/gvr/vim/welcome.html contains links to the released
- 3.0 version and to the beta 4.0 version (which is being called 3.21 until
- released - I got mail saying there's a 3.23, but I'm not sure where yet). It
- also contains links to the source code.
