Hi everyone,
I used to use the "Vim without Cream" binaries to get a recent build of Vim on Windows. Unfortunately these seem have stopped at 8.0.1616, so there are no builds of Vim 8.1.
I am nervous about using the latest overnight build (from vim-win32-installer or tuxproject.de) after trying a couple which were unusable).
Is there anywhere else to find a recent, stable(-ish) build of Vim 8.1?
Thanks,
Jonathan

Am I missing something? I :set incsearch and still perfectly capable of using <C-r><C-w> while in the command line editing the substitute command (both for the search and for the replacement patterns). Here's a gif: https://i.imgur.com/E5YRwza.gif

Okay, I'm good with that as an explanation. Still think it's
annoying, but won't fight with POSIX :-)

Besides what's already said, if you just want a simple way to log some
text, you can use the mechanism for channels:
ch_logfile('SomeFileName', 'w')
ch_log('This happened')
Messages are written to a log, thus this also works for things like
autocomplete. It will include time stamps, which are often useful.

Thanks. I was hoping to find a solution that did not require a plugin.
