## About
|
|
|
|
These are my Vim and Neovim 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 Vim and older Neovim installs are supported as well.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ViViDboarder/vim-settings.git
|
|
cd vim-settings
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
You can also remove any installed plugins or uninstall this configuration using either `make clean` or `make uninstall` respectively.
|

## Project Layout
|
|
|
|
The `vim` directory here is what gets symblinked to `~/.vim`, and the `neovim` directory gets symblinked to `~/.config/nvim`. Inside, the `init.vim` file will also get symblinked to `~/.vimrc`. The `neovim/init.vim` file will dyanmically load the older non-Lua configs if Lua is not supported. 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.

## Neovim config
|
|
|
|
This config is in Lua with the philosopy of taking advantage of as much out of the box capaiblities as possible.

### 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.
|
|
|
|
One problem with syncing rc file between different machines, is that you may have different usages. That is solved by this framework by making use of `local.rc` files. For every `*.rc.vim`, you may provide a `*.local.rc.vim` file which will be loaded after the shared one. Here you can override or add anything to the synced configuration without it causing problems on any other machine.

## Note
|
|
|
|
I am not the original creators of some of the files included in the vim directory and only vendor them out of convienince. If I am missing any licensing information I'd be happy to attach it.
