Ben,
Thank you for this; I was wondering: does building with MinGW change GVim into a GNU-ish application? Can I still use paths like "c:\test\some\file.txt"? While I use the forward slash almost exclusively, it is nice to occasionally be able to take a file path someone else gave me and just :e or :sp it.
It might be time to get MinGW (already have Cygwin and very pleased with it).
Thank you,
Salman

I build on Windows (vista and previously XP) using MinGW, and build the huge version with python.
I do not recall what the last version I've built however. I will try that tonight with the latest version.
Here is the .bat script I use to build:
