My MacVim auto-updated to 7.3 when I launched it. :-) I like the incremental improvements to things in this release. Kudos to Bram (and Bjorn for the Mac build).
How did you achieve that? Mine didn't, and doing "Check for updates" in the MacVim says I'm already at the latest version. I'm at "7.2 stable 1.2/33.3".

Probably because you are using a stable version, and MacVim 7.3 is still a snapshot.

The home page calls 7.3 a stable release. In my case I think it's because 7.3 is OS X 10.6 only and I'm still on 10.5.

You can also get a vi plugin for Visual Studio http://www.viemu.com/ which is pretty cool.
Re: Vim 7.3 released
#28It's pretty cool that vim has had the same lead developer running the project for nearly 20 years. It's also pretty cool how he asks for donations to be sent to nonprofits instead of himself. I know this is irrelevant to the new release, but I think it's great that he still keeps it going after 20 years without any monetary gain (at least directly from the project).
Bram is the one and only developer of Vim.

#29Looking forward to playing around with the new Lua interface.
EDIT: Ah, the binary distribution is compiled with -lua (see :version). Cloning the Hg repository now...
