Repository Details

A vim plugin that does nothing. Because why not

do-nothing.vim

Description

This plugin doesn't do anything.

Installation

The use of a package manager is unnecessary, but since you probably use one anyway, here's an example with vim-plug:

Plug 'michaelb/do-nothing.vim'

(for Neovim users that want better performance, a lua backend is available on the 'lua' branch: Plug 'michaelb/do-nothing.vim', {'branch' : 'lua'} + require('do-nothing'). Vim users are NOT second-class citizens and feature parity will be maintained)

Usage

  • None

Features

  • Fastest startup time among ALL Vim plugins
  • 100% code coverage
  • Works on any platform, OS, architecture, Vim/Neovim indifferently
  • Very low resource usage
  • No ugly VimL, no badly written Python...: no room for any bug!
  • v1 is already stable and feature-complete
  • Ready to use, no configuration required

Motivation:

This plugin is useless, HOWEVER: as far as I know, it hasn't been done before. Most art is useless per se, I wouldn't mind considering this a funny 'artistic' spin on vim plugin meta: if 'Vim plugin artists' are a thing, why not ?
