Re: Re: Re: why not vim7.4 have blowfish2

Could anyone please provide MD5 checksum of gvim-7-4-560.exe on http://sourceforge.net/projects/cream/files/Vim/. I wonder WHY that URL or even www.vim.org doesn't provide MD5 cheksum or like for vim packages to be downloaded.

30 minutes ago a new release was uploaded which has SHA256SUMS file: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cream/files/Vim/7.4.608/.

By the way, on this list top-posting is discouraged.
 

Thank you Pavlov, your reply could make sense.

Dear Brabandt, thanks for your reply. According to your instruction, I checked http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Where_to_download_Vim and downloaded gvim-7-4-560.exe successfully. But I have a question, the download page shows the gvim-7-4-560.exe size is 8.5M, but my downloaded file is only 8.1M, accurately,  8,477,008

I guess your problem is that gvim-7-4-560.exe size is 8.5 MB, but your download size is 8.1 MiB which computes (8.5 * (1000**2) / (1024**2) == 8.106). Windows is twisted: 1 MB in Windows is not 1 MB, it is one 1 MiB. And no, 1 MB is *not* 1024^2 bytes, SI defines M prefix as 1000^2 multiplier no matter what it is applied to.

 
bytes. And I checked the site from which file was downloaded is http://jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/project/cream/Vim/7.4.560/gvim-7-4-560.exe that is a mirror in Japan. And the download page does not display MD5 of that gvim.exe file. Could you or anyone help to verify if my downloaded gvim-7-4-560.exe tainted? Thanks a lot. Good luck!
