Dotvim

NOTE: this project is no longer supported. The development moved to the Dotvim v2. Beta testers and contributions are welcome.

An attempt at The Ultimate Vim Configuration™ ;)

All the right plugins are in. Nerdtree, CtrlP, you name it.

The focus is on supporting Rails, but there is a lot of generic stuff too, so it will surely serve you well with any language of your choice.

The config is using NeoBundle for easy upgrading. The list of installed bundles is in the bundles.vim

IMPORTANT:

• Vundle was replaced with Neobundle. See Neobundle upgrade instructions if you have an older Vundle based install.
• vim-powerline was replaced with vim-airline. Please see installation instructions

Some help tips are provided for some of the plugins. please check out the plugin's docs for more info.

Follow @vkushner and @astrails on Twitter to receive announcements of new versions, tips, etc.
