2) Enter ~ /. Vim directory. decompress the taglist installation package ~ The/. Vim directory generates several new subdirectories, such as plugin and DOC (other directories such as autoload may be created when other plug-ins are installed ).

3) Enter ~ /. Vim/doc directory. Run the "helptags." command in vim. This step adds the help document under Doc to the help topic of VIM, so that we can run "Help taglist.txt" in VIM to view the help of taglist.

4) Open the configuration file ~ /. Add the following lines to vimrc:

Let tlist_show_one_file = 1 "the tag of multiple files is not displayed at the same time, only the current file's let tlist_exit_onlywindow = 1" if the taglist window is the last window, exit Vim let tlist_ctags_cmd = "/usr/bin/ctags" "and associate the taglist with ctags.

"Read instructions 』

1) Vim has multiple configuration files vimrc, such as/etc/vimrc. This file affects Vim of the entire system. And ~ /. Vimrc. This file only affects the user's vim. And ~ The configuration in the/. vimrc file overwrites the configuration in/etc/vimrc. Here we only modify ~ /. Vimrc file.

2) The Vim plug-in is installed in the runtimepath directory of VIM. You can run the "set RTP" command on the vim command line to view the plug-in. Here we choose to install in ~ /. Vim directory. If no directory exists, create one.

3) when this article says "run the cmdxx command under the vim command line", it means to run the cmdxx command in the command line mode of vim, in the normal mode of VIM, enter the colon ":" to enter the command line mode, and then enter the command running xx. The colon ":" is omitted in the subsequent description.

4) if "run a command under Vim command line" is not specified, the command is executed in shell.

5) If the command is left blank or contains characters that are easily confused with the body, I will use double quotation marks to distinguish the command from the body. Therefore, do not enter quotation marks at the beginning and end of the command during actual operations.

6) This article describes the combination of shortcut keys, in the form of a-B shortcut keys, that means to press the key and B key at the same time, and in the form of "A-B C" shortcut keys, it means to press the key and B key at the same time, then open the AB key, and then press the C key.

7) the system I use is ubunt 11.10, And the vim version is VI improved 7.3.
