Remove pathogen #4

Closed ldmcdaniel closed 6 years ago

What's this PR do?

Lots of Changes. I removed pathogen as a plugin manager and use the default plugin manager built into Vim8. Apparently this loads the plugins through vim directly rather than through Vimscript. Vimscript is apprently slow, so this should load the plugins more quickly. In the process of removing all of the plugins, I didn't reinstall some of the plugins in the process. I have documented what I didn't reinstall so as to not lose any of my plugins should I decide I would like to use them again in the future.

One of the big ones that I didn't reinstall was NerdTree. I started using netrw and find it meets my needs with some modifications found in netrw.vimrc. I also discovered that my syntax highlighting in terminal vim was not working correctly because of the colorscheme I was using. I don't mind the default colorscheme in default vim, so I chose to only use the atom-dark colorscheme in MacVim. That improved the look of vim in the terminal.

Looks like a step in the right direction. Some good wins out of this investment of time. 👍
