So what is your problem? Vim 8.0.0 is what Vim 7.4.2368 would have
been if it had existed. The last patchlevel for 7.4 is 2367 and Vim
8.0 includes them all. Then 8.0.1, 8.0.2, etc., are additional
bugfixes or improvements to Vim 8.0.0.

On Unix-like systems, I _think_ that a non-localizable Vim (i.e.
compiled with -multi_lang) can be got by passing the --disable-nls
switch to configure, e.g. by setting $CONF_OPT_NLS to "--disable-nls"
prior to running "make config" "make reconfig" or "make". See
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm for
details. For Windows, I have another HowTo at
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compile.htm but take it
with a grain of salt, it's been years since I last used a Windows OS.

Try this switch and see what it gets you. Or use any Vim (even with
+multi_lang) and put the following near the top of your vimrc (before
sourcing the vimrc_example.vim, IIRC):

" force English menus & messages
if has('multi_lang')
if has('unix') " Unix, Linux, Mac OS X etc.
language messages C
else " Windows
language messages en
endif
endif

This should give you English menus and messages regardless of your
system locale.

Best regards,
Tony.

Possible to have :e autocompletion show entries from multiple folders?

Hello,

Is there some way to make command mode filename autocompletion show
folders from multiple directories? I would like :e autocompletion to
show files from Vim's $PWD at launch and files from paths relative to
the current buffer. In my Vim configuration, I already have "autocmd
BufEnter * silent! lcd %:p:h", so I just need to figure out how to also
show files from $PWD from using :e autocompletion.

Eric

Provided you're running a firewall.

Re: Strength of builtin blowfish2 encryption?

Thanks for all replies,

for my case I consider my computer(s) to be safe since there are no
other users on those machines, so I don't care to much about temporary
files.
On the other hand, any cloud service I do consider to be "public"
since I don't have any control about what google, dropbox, ... does.
Even though the password file won't be that big, it's pretty easy to
guess some content (e-mail and/or username).
So for me an external encryption is the way to got.

***sorry*** this version of netrw requires vim v7.4 with patch 213

This, and an empty window, is what I'm greeted by when doing `:e .`:

***sorry*** this version of netrw requires vim v7.4 with
patch 213

Most confused!

$ vim --version
VIM - Vi IMproved 8.0 (2016 Sep 12, compiled Sep 26 2016 16:41:05)
Inkluderade patchar: 1-13

Enorm version med GTK2-GUI. Funktioner inkluderade (+) eller inte

Huge version in English, I think.

BTW I wish I knew how to build a non-localized vim...

Can you provide a file where it happens and a minimalistic
vimrc, just enough to reproduce it?

Thanks
