I just installed Miktex, and downloaded Latex Suite latest snapshot.
I extracted its files in both
C:\Program files (x86)\Vim\vimfiles
and
C:\Program files (x86)\Vim\vim74
(I'm not sure why I have these two directories; it may be due to I have gVim and vim from cygwin)
.
I also edited my _vimrc to add the options that Latex-Suite installation guide says.
It seems to work, since commands like !latex and !yap example.tex are executed for a simple tex file. However, in gVim the menu tabs related to Tex do not appear. Also, the command "echo Tex_CompileRule_dvi" tells this is an undefined variable.
I'm afraid I might be missing some things attrying to use Latex within gVim...
The
vim-latex installation instructions
say to put the files into
~/vimfiles
if you are running on Windows. Neither of the paths you mentioned above seem like they would be
~/vimfiles
.
My interpretation of those directions would be to put the files into a
vimfiles
directory in your windows home directory - same place that your
_vimrc
file would be.
