Ayush Mandowara's Vim Config.

How to setup?

1. Make sure you have at least version 8.2 December 2019 release of Vim* or higher.
   • Download latest version from here
2. Clone this repo:
   • git clone https://github.com/ayushxx7/dotfiles
3. Run run.bat file with Admin Priveleges.
   • In case you don't open the bat in admin mode, it will try to launch itself in Admin mode.
4. Once everything is installed, run :CocInstall coc-python to get LSP support for Python.
   • You can get LSP Support for more languages as well. To know more, click here.

Note - Setup

You would most likely need to run the bat file twice,

• as first time chocolatey will be installed,
• and the second time the other dependencies will be installed using chocolatey.

I am looking for a way make this more seamless. Please submit a PR if you can do it for me :)

Note - Plugin Installation

The Plugin Manger (vim-plug) will attempt to install all plugins automatically.
If that doesn't happen:

• Open up (g/neov)vim, and press enter on all the errors it will throw right now
• Enter this command :PlugInstall
• Relaunch (g/neo)vim

About the Installer - What will this batch script do?
