vim-config

A set of configuration files and plugins for the vim text editor. Plugins are managed using vim-plug.

The easiest way to use this repository is to check out a local copy and create the appropriate links, e.g.

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/decrispell/vim-config.git vim-config

On Linux/Mac:

ln -s vim-config/vimrc .vimrc
ln -s vim-config/gvimrc .gvimrc
ln -s vim-config/vim .vim

On Windows: (from Documents and Settings/{User})

mklink /J vimfiles vim-config\vim
mklink /H _vimrc vim-config\vimrc

Vim-Plug is used to manage plugins. You should run

:PlugInstall

inside of vim to perform the installation of plugins. Vim might complain about missing colorschemes before you do this step.

The flake8 checker is used (via syntastic) to check python code. You need to have it installed on your system for this to work.

On OS X (at least), neovim requires the neovim python package to support plugins like YouCompleteMe. install with 'pip install neovim'.
