A highly tuned vim distribution that will blow your socks off!
this is my personal vim distribution that i have tweaked over time and evolved from a simple vanilla vimrc configuration to a full-blown distribution that it is today.
while it is very easy to install this and get up and running on a brand new machine (a use case i have), i recommend that you do not install this unless you fully understand everything that's going on inside. scan it for tips and tricks, or fork and customize it for your needs.
~/.vim directorygit submodule init && git submodule updatemv ~/.vimrc ~/.vimrc.backup~/.vimrc:let g:dotvim_settings = {}
let g:dotvim_settings.version = 2
source ~/.vim/vimrc:call dein#install()the g:dotvim_settings.version is a simple version number which is manually edited. it is used to detect whether significant breaking changes have been introduced so that users of the distribution can be notified accordingly.
g:dotvim_settings variable, which will be used whilst sourcing the distribution's vimrc file. here is an example:" this is the bare minimum
let g:dotvim_settings = {}
let g:dotvim_settings.version = 1
" here are some basic customizations, please refer to the top of the vimrc file for all possible options
let g:dotvim_settings.default_indent = 3
let g:dotvim_settings.max_column = 80
let g:dotvim_settings.colorscheme = 'my_awesome_colorscheme'
" change the default directory where all miscellaneous persistent files go
let g:dotvim_settings.cache_dir = "/some/place/else"
" by default, language specific plugins are not loaded. this can be changed with the following:
let g:dotvim_settings.plugin_groups_exclude = ['ruby','python']
" if there are groups you want always loaded, you can use this:
let g:dotvim_settings.plugin_groups_include = ['go']
" alternatively, you can set this variable to load exactly what you want
let g:dotvim_settings.plugin_groups = ['core','web']
" if there is a particular plugin you don't like, you can define this variable to disable them entirely
let g:dotvim_settings.disabled_plugins=['vim-foo','vim-bar']
" finally, load the distribution
source ~/.vim/vimrc
" anything defined here are simply overrides
