My Personal Configuration Files

VIM Configuration

My first and most useful suggestion is this: BUILD YOUR OWN SET OF VIM CONFIGURATION!! I strongly recommend this article to start with a minimum set of configuration options. Than build your editing environment incrementally due to your very personal taste of preferences.

Installation steps for who loves risky stuff.

IMPORTANT NOTE: now my setup heavily uses Unite plugin for various type of listings. Current MacVim does have a problem with garbage collecting causes freezing of vim after selection from any unite buffer. This problem is fixed with regular Vim source code. So i strongly recommend using latest official Vim distribution until MacVim includes the patch about this bug.

IMPORTANT NOTE (2015-03-26): i started to use neobundle for vim plugin management. Besides, i am using neocomplete for auto completion and removed youcompleteme from my stack. I migrated my package manager from Vundle to NeoBundle with these commands under vim/vimfiles/bundle directory; ls | grep -v neobundle.vim | xargs rm -rf then vim +NeoBundleInstall +qall command. With neobundle some of the compilation commands i mentioned below are deprecated because these NeoBundle can execute them.

clone the repo.
execute git submodule update --init --recursive
make a symbolic link of REPO_PATH/vim/vimfiles to ~/.vim
make a symbolic link of REPO_PATH/vim/vimrc to ~/.vimrc
create a directory for persistent undo history mkdir ~/.vimtmp
install necessary external programs. as i remember:
- flake8 for syntax checks. pip install flake8 used by sytastic plugin.
- ctags for tagbar and ctrlp plugin. You can use your OS package manager to
- install ag aka the silver searcher install
- nodejs and npm
execute vim "+NeoBundleInstall vimproc" +qall
execute vim +NeoBundleInstall +qall
if you want to override some configuration options you can create a file called ~/.vimrc.local and put your own settings. This file (if exists) will we sourced at the very end of vimrc.

Yeah these should be enough to use my VIM configuration on your system. If these are not sufficient, please warn me.

Most notable commands, shortcuts etc. (mode indicator inside parantheses)

Note: i am changing some keybindings due to mnemonic approach based on Spacemacs project.

<C-n> to invoke multiple cursors plugin info
<leader>qp runs close commands for preview, help and other windows (:pclose :cclose :helpclose)
<leader>qq runs command :qa
<leader>gs executes command :Gstatus

TMUX Configuration

Very basic conf.

For Mac OS X --> brew install reattach-to-user-namespace
For Ubuntu/Linux --> sudo aptitude install xsel
Symbolic link tmux/tmux.conf or tmux/tmux.ubuntu.conf to ~/.tmux.conf based on your platform choice.
Check and modify shell command based preference. Default is fish for now.

ZSH Configuration

Based on oh-my-zsh.

Install zsh brew install zsh or sudo aptitude install zsh based on your platform.
Install Oh My Zsh!.
Rename ~/.zshrc to ~/.zshrc_backup
Symbolic link zsh/zshrc to ~/.zshrc
Default theme is my own customization to norm theme. If you want to use it, you must make a symbolic link zsh/oh-my-zsh/themes/normz.zsh-theme to ~/.oh-my-zsh/themes directory.

FISH Configuration

Based on plain old fish

Install fish shell brew install fish or sudo aptitude install fish based on your platform.
pip install virtualfish
Create a symbolic link fish/config.fish to ~/.config/fish/config.fish
Create a symbolic link fish/functions/ to ~/.config/fish/functions
Check and modify your TMUX conf to use fish.
