Hi Chris,

[...]
> This page also has gnuwin32 binaries of less and vim.

The vi binary I got from your page does not work correctly on my Windows
NT 4 system.
When called from a bash prompt, it starts up correctly, but scrolling
wih the cursor down key is messed up, when I reach the last line of the
screen. If I set lines=26 instead of 25 this works ok, but then I get a
problem with the : commands.
If I start that vi from a native Windows NT application it hangs
completely 8-/

Are there any suggestions what to do against this problem ?

Thx.
Bye.
Michael.
