Vim 9.2 for OpenVMS VAX -- where these files come from ====================================================== Nothing in this kit was compiled or edited by us. The programs and the runtime files are the ones the Vim for OpenVMS maintainers publish (Polarhome), exactly as supplied; this kit only wraps them in a BACKUP saveset with an installer and an uninstaller. Prepared by Douglas P. Fields, Jr. (symbolics@lisp.engineer).
