Re: Which runtime files for console vim?

I followed your lead below, and got somewhere. Typed, `have' and got
the following message:

Dictionary completion (^K^N^P) match 1 of 6

but no visual menu of choice. I could scroll through the 6 choices by
using ctrl-N or ctrl-N. I wonder what options are needed to actually
see the menu or list, as you did? I am running vim 7.0.237 in conole
mode (no gui) with these features:
