.vimrc

This repo contains two files:

  1. .vimrc.minimal, which contains some sensible defaults for starting out with vim (without being overwhelming), as well as being thoroughly documented
  2. .vimrc.advanced, which is my standard .vimrc includes some more advanced and opinionated settings.

Plugins

minimal doesn't rely on any plugins; advanced includes the basic setup necessary for Pathogen (a plugin manager), as well as a couple of tweaks to the settings of NERDTree and python-mode.

Setup

  • Download the file, and mv .vimrc.minimal to ~/.vimrc.
  • Or fork this, and create a symlink (ln -s .vimrc.minimal ~/.vimrc), that way you can update it but keep it in version control.

Once you're starting to feel comfortable, start exploring the internet and building up your .vimrc. I'd recommend keeping it in version control, and keeping it well-documented.

Talk

This was created for a talk I did on vim, in case you are interested in learning what the fuss is about.
