What on earth are you doing, to get "Thanks" instead of "thanks"?

That's not really relevant, though. Things that are relevant that
could help solve your problem:
1. What version of Vim are you using? We probably don't need the
entire :version output but at least the version string itself and
where you obtained the binary executable are quite often useful bits
of information.
2. What plugins do you have installed? This error message looks like
it comes from a custom Perl filetype plugin.
3. What version of these plugins do you have installed?
4. In what way did you invoke Vim and load the file?
5. Do you have a .vimrc? Are you running in 'nocompatible' or
'compatible' mode?

Please bottom-post, as I have done, when you reply. And try to figure
out why the character widths in your message look so odd.
