This is a set of config files for the brilliant configuration project LunarVim by Christian Chiarulli. I've been using VI on and off as my daily editor since the early 1990's and Christian's setup is the best I've seen so I've just plagiarized it and added a few of my own twists.

The main changes are documented below:

My config for status line.
My dashboard.
Custom Keybindings.
Custom Colours.
and much more.

I intend to merge Christian's changes into my config regularly to keep up with his brilliant work.

Visual Appearance

I use zenburn theme. One of the reasons for this is that its available in virtually any plug-in/app/program that allows theming, so I can near consistent code theming everywhere.
I've added vertical markers at 80 and 120 characters.
- The status line displays the current column and line length, these change colour at 80 and 120 characters.
The current cursor line is highlighted in light red
The current cursor column is highlighted in light blue
Whitespace at the end of a line in highlighted in bright red.
Margin:
- Current line number is highlighted in Yellow
- Relative line numbers are shown in RoyalBlue
- Markers are shown
- Git changes are shown
- Folding marks are also shown in the margin

Status line

The status line configuration can be found here

This image shows what is in the different sections.

The line is split into 5 main sections, 3 on the left and 2 on the right:

On the left:
- VIM Mode is colour coded, see the lualine.lua for details
- Git information
- LSP information
On the right:
- File information
  - Line Ending, Linux , Mac or Windows
  - File Name (red padlock when the file is readonly)
  - File Type
  - File Size
  - Character encoding
- Position information - Percentage - Current Line Number / Number of lines in the file - Current column / length of current line - Tab mode, or and number of characters Note the column information is colour coded, >80 = Yellow >120 = Red.

Extra Plugins

I've added a few extra plugins I use to the configuration:

Codi I alias "bc" on the command line to get a powerful calculator scratchpad using python.
Codeium "Free, ultrafast Copilot alternative for Vim and Neovim"
Colorizer
Dial I've enabled a bunch of the predefined "increment's", also added a few of my own, e.g: True<->False and full month names, logging levels and more. See the config for detailsI

Note this cheatsheet is available as a HTML file, which is accessed by hitting F1 in vim. See my dotfiles for a simple bash script to convert this GitHut markdown file into HTML (and thus PNG).
