Nice plugin by the way!

Thanks for your suggestion. It's a very good description of the possible options. But please understand that I want to keep the README page super-short as it is now. It's a personal obsession of mine.

fflorent commented 9 years ago

OK, but could you at least refer to the other possibilities (the two links to vimdoc)? So it would be friendlier for people that are not so used to vim.

FWIW, I had to search for documentation to understand how to change this variable.

The decision was the result of personal taste, and not a rational one :)

Yes, you're perfectly right that it's going to be helpful for the users without enough experience. But on the flip side, the seasoned users should have no problem understanding the option and may feel that the extra explanation is stating the obvious.

I agree with @fflorent on that, I downloaded the plugin and was really impressed, it's exactly what I was looking for. After a while I wanted to change this setting as well and was lucky enough to find this issue rather quickly so perhaps you could add a doc/peekaboo.txt help file so it would be easier for others as well?
