Where's my Open-With gVim context menu option in Windows 7?
Found a link on the internet which describes what to do: http://davidvielmetter.com/?p=1094
If you want to have the same context menu functionality you got from gVim in 32-bit Windows you’ll need to make the following changes to the
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\]
key in the registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Edit with Vim]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Edit with Vim\command]
@="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Vim\\vim73\\gvim.exe \"%1\""
The page includes a .reg fragment which will work for gVim 7.3
Version 7.3 fixes this problem. Use the "self-installing executable". http://www.vim.org/download.php#pc
