• Bug report

Version:

Vimperator:	3.16.0 (created: 2017/02/01 00:55:15)
Firefox:	Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0

Description:

When setting any of runtimepath,encoding,fileencoding in ~/.vimperatorrc, vimperator will after sourcing this file give a red error saying

ReferenceError: Application is not defined.

Expected behavior:

The settings should work. I've had the same config for many years but these 3 settings started to give this error some months ago.

Steps to reproduce:

Set any of these 3 in ~/.vimperatorrc:

set runtimepath=~/.vimperator	
set encoding="UTF-8"
set fileencoding="UTF-8"

These 3 lines have worked for many years.
