Mark Turner’s .vim¶ ↑

This is now defunct. See my dotfiles for my new setup.¶ ↑

Welcome to the magical world of my .vim. I use this setup every day and finally decided to share it with the world… or at least my co-workers.

It is based primarily on the work of Ben Bleything, the people that inspired him, and the crew at Opscode.

See the Credits section below for more details.

Installation¶ ↑

Pretty straightforward. Clone and symlink:

$ git clone git://github.com/amerine/dotvim.git ~/.vim
$ ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc ~/.vimrc

Then install/update the bundles:

$ cd ~/.vim
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Then link the snippets:

$ cd ~/.vim/bundle/snipmate_snippets && rake install

Install the Monaco_Linux-Powerline.ttf font.
