How to use

1. Git clone this repo or download the ZIP. Make sure this vimrc directory is under ~ (user HOME directory for all OS platforms).

2. Put a _vimrc file (I prefer this filename, you can use other lawful init filename like .vimrc as you wish) under ~ with simplest content:

   source ~/vimrc/.vimrc
   " CUSTOM

   Or find reference in useful_templates.

Complete mode

Depending on bundle/Vundle.vim, make sure you get it. Start Vim and execute :PluginInstall. If some network connection problems happen, please consider to use a proxy.

Basic mode

If you need only the basic Vim configurations (without any plugin):

• Move PluginManagerLoad.vim, PluginsOptions.vim away, or only take .vimrc for use;
• bundle/Vundle.vim is also useless;

It worked well in pure UNIX-like command line environment (usually no connection to Internet) for myself.

Useful templates

• diffviewer.vim

  I use gVim with this setting as the external diff viewer of TortoiseSVN (in Windows). Set TortoiseSVN option like:

  X:\path\to\gvim.exe --noplugin -u "X:\path\to\diffviewer.vim" -d

• gVimE_lnk

  I use as a minimalism start shortcut in Windows. With --noplugin it will start very fast and take very small amount of memory. The very original taste of Vim right? :)

• local_vimrc.vim

  _vimrc reference, including settings like custom gVim window size for different monitor screens, overriding the defaults setting in .vimrc. Adapt for your own need.
