Feature request: vim integration - allow custom directory in config

[bunglegrind]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. As stated in the title, the vim integration assumes jslint files in .vim directory. But in Windows, the default directory is vimfiles

Describe the solution you'd like Passing the directory as a parameter in .vimrc

Describe alternatives you've considered Change the path according to the platform vim is running

See: https://superuser.com/questions/119991/how-do-i-get-vim-home-directory

• thx for reporting, should be fixed now
• you can save vim-plugin + jslint.mjs into any directory and it should run fine from there.
  • see updated README @ https://github.com/jslint-org/jslint?tab=readme-ov-file#quickstart-jslint-in-vim

Mmm...I don't think it's working...the command is correctly registered but it does not output anything

expand("<sfile>:p:h") gives you the path of the directory you're in, not the path of .vim or vimfiles, because it is inside a function. You may:

1. let the user set the path in a variable in .vimrc
2. Take the first path of the runtime variable
3. mimic a closure using a dictionary function (I'm not fluent in vimscript, so you should check its feasibility http://ujihisa.blogspot.com/2010/11/something-like-closure-for-vim-script.html )

• it worked fine for me in windows 10.
• removed folder ~/.vim/ and file ~/.vimrc from my home directory
• in git-bash ran following script to setup ~/vimfiles/ and ~/.vimrc:

  (set -e
  mkdir -p ~/vimfiles/
  cd ~/vimfiles/
  curl -O "https://www.jslint.com/jslint.mjs"
  curl -O "https://www.jslint.com/jslint_wrapper_vim.vim"
  ls -la ~/vimfiles/
  #
  cd ~/
  printf ":source ~/vimfiles/jslint_wrapper_vim.vim\n" > .vimrc
  ls -la ~/.vimrc
  )

• opened both vim from command-line and gvim, and both ran jslint fine from folder ~/vimfiles/

can you download the alpha-version @ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jslint-org/jslint/alpha/jslint_wrapper_vim.vim and see if it works?

I've just replaced jslint_wrapper_vim.vim with the alpha version and now it works! Thanks!
