Hi, A new version of VimMate is now available: Version 0.6.3 VimMate is a graphical add-on to Vim with IDE-like features: it does more than the plain Vim while still being lightweight. Even with the additional features, it stays out of the way for it’s main task: editing files with Vim. VimMate adds functionality to Vim by embedding Vim GTK GUI (gVim) within VimMate. Changes in version 0.6.3: - # 13212: VimMate could not be resized properly. - # 7399, partially. A new warning has been added when too many files are loaded. See [http://vimmate.rubyforge.org/](http://vimmate.rubyforge.org/) for more information. Comments will be greatly appreciated. If you find any bugs or if you have suggestions, please use the tracker on Rubyforge: [http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?group\_id=2612](http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?group_id=2612) Guillaume Benny ---

Hi, As far as I know, VimMate doesn’t work under Windows although it might be possible. See feature request #13253 for details: [http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=13253&group\_id=2612&a](http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=13253&group_id=2612&a) tid=10058 Guillaume
