Falkor's Dotfiles -- vim configuration

Installation

You can use the install.sh script featured with the Falkor's dotfile repository.

$> cd ~/.config/dotfiles.falkor.d
$> ./install.sh --vim      # OR ./install.sh --with-vim

This will setup the configuration files in ~/.config/vim, following the XDG Base Directory Specification To be able to inform vim about this 'exotic' location (ssuming the $XDG_* variables are configured in your shell), you need to setup the environment variable $VIMINIT as follows (see shell/available/vim.sh):

# XDG compliant setup for vim
# Assuming you install your vim configuration under ~/.config/vim/vimrc as done
# by default by Falkor's dotfiles -- see https://github.com/Falkor/dotfiles
export VIMINIT='let $MYVIMRC="$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vim/vimrc" | source $MYVIMRC'

Upon the first launch, vim will also setup the directory ~/.cache/vim/ to host in particular the packages installed automatically with NeoBundle.

Uninstall

$> cd ~/.config/dotfiles.falkor.d
$> ./install.sh --delete --vim
