To download the latest vim, use mercurial with the following commands
hg clone https://vim.googlecode.com/hg/ vim
cd vim
hg update vim73
I dont know how the persistent undo and conceal text features work right now, but I’m gonna try them out when i get to work today using :help version-7.3. My Vim Configuration will be updated as soon as possible!
