5 years ago Don't know if there's any compatibility issues with vim-gtk3, but you should be able to activate folding by adding the following line to your .vimrc if this plugin exists in your shared vim directory:
let g:markdown_folding = 1
There shouldn't be any need for the after/ dir if you want to use the folding provided by this plugin. AFAIK, usually this plugin is included with vim 8.0 by default. To check, see if markdown.vim exists in /usr/share/vim/.../ftplugin/. If so, and if its contents match the file in this repo, the above solution should suffice. The relevant code is: https://github.com/tpope/vim-markdown/blob/e2d7fcd682a461a3951e8b5067cc8a0083e75e35/ftplugin/markdown.vim#L68
If vim-gtk-3 doesn't include the folding code, you may need to install this as a separate plugin. Checkout vim plugin managers for the easiest way to do that: https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen, https://github.com/k-takata/minpac
I have a PR for updating the README to include this information.
The version mentioned in the title has this plugin under ftplugins dated more recently than the code in this repo. Took me a while to figure out the repo is still more up to date. That'll need a quick change in the code here, perhaps.
Then I tried to install this plugin to
after/because it's a filetype plugin, as per the docs. Using:scriptnamesI see that it loads the syntax file OK, last, but doesn't load the ftplugin file. So I source it manually and it works. This isn't how theafter/dir is supposed to work though, right?I tried adding a source line with exact working dir in .vimrc, but while that loaded it in, it didn't work (i.e. folding still didn't work). Only sourcing it from
after/manually works for me, which obviously is not ideal.Also tried replacing the files manually in the runtime directory... no dice.
What am I missing?
