Dear Jason,

I tried that, but didn't work. i have downloaded the vim-7.0.tar.bz2 file
and put it in the bin file after extracting it but still didn't work.

do you have the *.exe file for the vi / vim command? 

best regards,

Shahed

You should not just download the vim tar file.

What you need to do is run the Cygwin setup utility
(http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe) and tell it to install vim for you.

It will take care of the messy details.

-Jason
