I ran into some issues installing on Windows 7, all latexmk commands would fail in Vim with no error messages. Running latexmk from a terminal showed that a perl interpreter was not found (perl is not installed by default on Windows). After installing strawberry perl everything works. Should LaTeX-Box catch this error and display it in Vim?

I guess that would be nice. But since I don't use windows, I don't want to get involved in implementing this, since it means I would not be able to test it myself. I might consider merging a pull request, though. Else some of the other developers might be interested in following up on this issue.

Hi,
I will try to get an windows environment with no perl installed somehow. In the meantime, I'll add a notice in the README.
