I get this string. I looked in the IMAP function and found out what
the problem is. In file plugin/imaps.vim, line 181 you start a
command:

=09exe 'inoremap <silent>'
=09=09=09=09\ escape(lastLHSChar, '|')
=09=09=09=09\ '<C-r>=3D<SID>LookupCharacter("' .
=09=09=09=09\ escape(lastLHSChar, '\|"') .
=09=09=09=09\ '")<CR>'

The problem is that my vim does not "understand" this as one command.
If I join this lines and remove back-slashes, the IMAP executes
correctly. I also get all the menus in gvim. The only problem is that
many other files contain such commands. Do you have any idea why
multi-line commands causes problems to my vim?
