Quick and dirty Vim+ECL for Windows/Cygwin at
http://theclapp.org/lisp/vim-and-ecl.tgz .  I installed Vim and ECL in
/usr/local; you probably have to unpack this in the same place for it
to work.

... and it might not work even then.  I performed exactly one test:

  :ecl (print "ok")

which verifies that ECL works, but doesn't test the networking at all,
so Slim-vim itself may not work.  Sorry, I was pressed for time.

You can get the rest of the Vim runtime at Vim.org.

Sorry for the hack-and-slash job; I figured I'd get out what I had
time for; if it worked, great.  If not, I'd have more time later.

Please report back if this works.
