Vim / Neovim install error / solution #57

Closed victoriastuart closed 5 years ago

victoriastuart commented 5 years ago

Issue: Failed to install in Vim (Neovim) using the approach listed.

Aside:

## Symlinks (to use Vim settings with Neovim):
ln -s ~/.vim ~/.config/nvim
ln -s ~/.vimrc ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

Solution: I manually recreated the autoload | plugin | syntax directory structure shown at https://github.com/junegunn/vim-peekaboo in /home/victoria/.vim/ (copied raw files/code to those locations).

In my case, I needed to create the /home/victoria/.vim/plugin/ and /home/victoria/.vim/syntax directories.

[victoria@victoria .vim]$ tree -L 2 -F ~/.vim -I 'bundle*|init*|readme*|spell*|swap|undo|view|vim*'
/home/victoria/.vim
├── autoload/
│   ├── pathogen.vim
│   └── peekaboo.vim
├── plugin/
│   └── peekaboo.vim
└── syntax/
    └── peekaboo.vim

This is a general Vim plugin question rather than an issue specific to vim-peekaboo. I suggest that you read through the documentation of the plugin manager of your choice, and/or ask this on https://vi.stackexchange.com/ instead.
