Notetice

This is a fork repo form Eddie Kao ([email protected])/eddie-vim thanks for all.

With the original repo eddie-vim. I remove all default hotkey setting and redefind at jyyan-vimrc.

-- My own Vim configurations and plugins which I used.

Primary Vim relative settings are in plugin/settings/Settings.vim file, and isolate other plugins' settings in plugin/settings directory.

It's how my Vim looks now: or

and Here are some screenshots on the other platforms.

Usage

Installation and Requisites:

1. BACKUP your .vim directory and .vimrc first.(IMPORTANT!)

2. cd ~ to change directory to your home directory.

3. copy files to your home directory:

git clone git://github.com/jyyan/jyyan-vim.git

4. cd to jyyan-vim directory and execute the update.sh to get latest version modules:

cd jyyan-vim
./update.sh

5. make a symbolic link .vim to jyyan-vim that you just cloned, or just rename it to .vim also be fine:

ln -s jyyan-vim .vim

6. link the vimrc to

ln -s .vim/vimrc .vimrc

7. if you're still not familiar with the movement in vim by HJKL or yanking and pasting text, I've made a easier version:

ln -s .vim/easy-vimrc .vimrc

8. if you use GUI version VIM, such as MacVim or GVim, you can also link to .gvimrc:

ln -s .vim/gvimrc .gvimrc

9. if you want to use same satting like me , you can also link jyyan-vimrc :

ln -s .vim/jyyan-vimrc .vimrc

10. if you use Powerline under Ubuntu or something which can not show the correct icons/fonts on the bottom, you can check this link, it looks pretty nice.

11. you may need to install ack first if you use ack.vim.

Update:

change directory to ~/.vim and execute ./update.sh script, it should do all the updates automatically.

Features and Key Mappings:

1. Resize splited windows automatically, so that you get a bigger editing room if you're working with a smaller screen. (stole from Gary Bernhardt)
2. Toggle between working mode and presentation mode by <leader>z, but only work in GUI version Vim. You can check here to see how it looks like. (stole from Mike Skalnik)
3. some usually used key mappings in normal mode at jyyan-vimrc:
4. <F1> to launch a Calendar window.
5. <F2> to save this document and run checksyntax_vim automatically
6. <ctrl>+s to save file too
7. <F4> to close this Tabpage or close this document use :q
8. <F5> is script runner, according to the filetype, it will run Ruby or Python script, or even CoffeeScript(You have to install CoffeeScript first, of course). if the filetype is VimScript, <F5> will run :source % for you.

FAQ

1. cTags Install ctags and vim :

   Ubuntu

   sudo apt-get install vim-gnome vim exuberant-ctags cscope

   OpenSUSE

   sudo zypper install vim ctags

Its that the default ctags plugin setting is for ubuntu environment. When you use to open the ctags list , got the message show you vim could not found the ctags command. just try to check your ctags path and replace my settings in plugin/settings/Ctags.vim file:

    let Tlist_Ctags_Cmd = '/your/path/to/ctags'

and then check the ctags bin locate path using whereis :

  # whereis ctagsctags

  <b>/usr/bin/ctags</b> /usr/share/man/man1/ctags.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1p/ctags.1p.gz

and change the setting from

    let Tlist_Ctags_Cmd = '/usr/local/bin/ctags'   # ubuntu ctags location

to

    let Tlist_Ctags_Cmd = '/usr/bin/ctags'         # openSUSE ctags location

or just link the ctags bin to new locations

  #sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ctags /usr/local/bin/ctags

and Exuberant Ctags is recommended. at last , if you are use windows. you can download ctags from Ctags download and unzip it. copy the ctags.exe to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 folder , then you can use ctags command in cmd.exe .

2. Windows install gvim guide:

3. download vimruntime & Gvim from : Vim release page

9. finished

10. Maybe you would got the warning message such like this CheckSyntax: Run vim with the --servername NAME command line option to enable use of AsyncCommand , on the time you use vim to open some files at linux environment. you can open ~/.bashrc and addition the followinig line :
