Add a ruler column to show signs #35

Open albfan opened 8 years ago

albfan commented 8 years ago

There's several plugins that add signs (vim-gitgutter) (syntastic) (breakpts) why not adding a first column with marking that signs.

As minimap includes 4 lines in each real line, color is not an option, but maybe a fixed color (yellow for vcs signs, red for syntastic signs) would be helpful

I'm certainly supportive of such a suggestion. PR welcome!

Great, I will base the develop on

redir! > @a
   silent execute 'sign place'
redir END

based on https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter/blob/master/test/helper.vim#L10 (the test suite for vim-gitgutter to check its signs)
