How to install using pathogen? #17

Closed cevhyruz closed 5 years ago

cevhyruz commented 5 years ago

This should have a readme for installing isn't it? I can't seem to install it properly using pathogen.

Installation is not different than for any other plugin. Something like

git clone https://github.com/vifm/vifm.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/vifm

should work fine. Why do you think it doesn't work for you?

I'm using neovim and installed it with pathogen but I can't seem to access the help docs. so I figured I guess it's about the installtion

I think you just missing help tags. As pathogen's README says:

Normally to generate documentation, Vim expects you to run :helptags on each
directory with documentation (e.g., :helptags ~/.vim/doc). Provided with
pathogen.vim is a :Helptags command that does this on every directory in your
'runtimepath'. If you really want to get crazy, you could even invoke Helptags
in your vimrc. I don't like to get crazy.

So try running :Helptags and see if that makes help work.
