## About
These are my Vim settings that I like to keep synced between my computers for convenience. This bootstrap setup will support both Vim and Neovim and uses different plugins, where needed, to bridge gaps in functionality. I use Neovim day to day, but there are times it is not available, so I maintain Vim support as well.

I use Neovim day to day, but there are times it is not available, so Vim and older Neovim installs are supported as well.
# Install
Vim and Neovim less than 0.5 support is really in maintanence mode now and not heavily maintained.
The bootstrap script included will set the proper symblinks and run package managers to install any plugins.

You can also remove any installed plugins or completely uninstall this configuration using either `make clean` or `make uninstall` respectively.

# Project Layout
## Project Layout
The `vim` directory here is what gets symb linked to `~/.vim`, `~/.nvim`, and `~/.config/nvim`. Inside, the `init.vim` file will also get symblinked to `~/.vimrc` and `~/.nvimrc`. The other included directories are mostly standard vim directories that provide some additional configuration files. The exceptions would be `backup`, which becomes the new default location for storing backup files while editing. The `tmp` directory is for storing session information. The `rc` directory is where all the `vimrc` work gets done.

# The rc Files
## Neovim config
This config is in Lua with the philosopy of taking advantage of as much out of the box capaiblities as possible.
## Vim and old Nvim
### The rc Files
The `init.vim` file essentially sets vim up to import the rc files from the `rc` directory. The actual configuration exists almost entirely in the `rc` directory. Each file should be fairly self explanatory.
