PROBLEM: gvim says:

    MS-Windows 32-bin GUI version with OLE support

which seems BAD!

will d/l a 64-bit version from here: https://github.com/vim/vim-win32-installer/releases/tag/v8.1.0985

d/l zip file:

        gvim_8.1.0985_x64.zip
        64-bit zip archive

installed to:

        C:\Users\wturner\installs\

and gvim is at:

        C:\Users\wturner\installs\vim\vi81\gvim.exe

HOWEVER, had to:

        cd /cygdrive/c/Users/wturner/install/vim/vim81
        chmod a+rx *.exe

then:

        C:\Users\wturner\installs\vim\vim81\gvim.exe

says:

        MS-Window 64-bin GUI vesion with OLE support

and when run from file explorer:

        :echo $VIM
        C:\Users\wturner\installs\vim

Yipee!!! IT WORKS!

        :python print "a"
        a

Have created a desktop shortcut named 64-bin gVim 81

TODO (anomalies from standard):

• need to always copy vimrc to C:\Users\wturner\installs\vim\
• bg color is not green (???)
