VimConf

A vimrc file and different bundles. This vim setup requires at least Vim 7.3 compiled with python & multibyte support.

The font used when running gVim is Inconsolata; the OpenType file is included in this repo.

The config uses pathogen for automatically adding the below bundles to the Vim runtimepath.

To generate the documentation tags for each plugin, run :Helptags.

For Tagbar to work well with JavaScript (and probably other languages), we highly recommend installing the latest version of Exuberant Ctags.

For Syntastic to check syntax of different file types, you optionally need to have a PHP runtime, JSHint, and/or PyFlakes installed.

Setup

Check out VimConf to your home folder like so:

cd ~

git clone --recursive git://github.com/beardedprojamz/VimConf.git

Then create symlinks to the files inside the repo:

ln -s ~/VimConf/.vim ~/.vim

ln -s ~/VimConf/.vimrc ~/.vimrc

ln -s ~/VimConf/.vimrc_custom ~/.vimrc_custom

ln -s ~/VimConf/.gvimrc ~/.gvimrc

That way, any time you want to update to the latest versions of the VimConf, you can just git pull inside the VimConf folder.

cd ~/VimConf/

git pull

Bundle List

All of these are loaded as git submodules as of 01/19/2012 so if your repo is older than that you will need to go into your checkout and do the below commands for things to work:

git pull

git submodule init

git submodule update

If you haven't checked out the repo yet, be sure and clone it with the --recursive flag and it will grab everything.
