Installing the VIM Management plugin pathogen

1. Download Pathogen and install

Pathogen's download address is: Https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen

Create a . Vim under ~ and then create bundles under. Vim AutoLoad

# CD ~

# mkdir. Vim

# mkdir. Vim/bundle

# mkdir. Vim/autoload

Bundle is the autoload that holds the vim plug-in is to store the pathogen.

# CD ~/.vim/autoload

# wget Https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen

Can be extracted directly after download. The pathogen plugin only has a single script, so the installation is to put it in the current user's ~/.vim/autoload directory.

That is, copy the extracted AutoLoad directory together with the Pathogen.vim plugin inside the ~/.vim/directory.

2. Enable Pathogen

To enable pathogen, you will also need to add the following sentence in the ~/.VIMRC file, anywhere before filetype plugin indent on:

# Call Pathogen#infect ()

Need to explain, the plug-in can not be placed in the/usr/share/vim/vim73/directory, and can only be placed in the ~/.vim/directory. To enable pathogen, you can only modify the ~/.VIMRC, not the/ETC/VIMRC (Ubuntu generally only needs to modify the ~/.VIMRC. If you are using fedora, you will need to modify the/ETC/VIMRC file if you want to make the plug-in or VIM configuration effective when you open vim as root.

If there is no ~/.VIMRC file, create the file and copy the following to the file:
Call Pathogen#infect () syntax on filetype plugin indent on

3, install the new plug- in

Installing Nerdtree

For example, to download the install Nerdtree plugin, simply go to the ~/.vim/bundle/directory and execute the following command:

git clone http://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree.git

After the download is complete, you will see a new directory in the ~/.vim/bundle/directory: Nerdtree

Ok. The Nerdtree plugin is already installed. You can see that this approach is much simpler than the traditional Vim plug-in installation method.

and to uninstall the plug-in is also very simple, just need to delete the Nerdtree directory in the ~/.vim/bundle/directory, neat.

To update the plugin to the latest version, simply go to the directory ~/.vim/bundle/nerdtree/and execute the following command:

Tagbar can be used as an alternative to TagList, execute the installation command in the ~/.vim/bundle/directory as follows:

git clone https://github.com/majutsushi/tagbar.git




You can also set shortcut keys in the VIMRC file later:

Nmap <F4>:tagbartoggle<cr> "set shortcut key let G:tagbar_width = 40" Sets the width by default to Autocmd Vimenter * nested: Call Tagbar#autoopen (1) "Open vim automatically when open tagbarlet G:tagbar_left = 1" On the left "let G:tagbar_right = 1" On the right side

The purpose of the Supertab plugin is to enable the TAB key on the keyboard to have a quicker auto-completion and contextual hints. Download and install the plugin in the ~/.vim/bundle/directory

git clone https://github.com/ervandew/supertab.git

Use pathogen to configure VIM syntax highlighting

Vim itself can set the keyword highlighting, but unable to set the function name and custom data structure highlighting, you can solve this problem through the Taghighlight plug-in.

First install the Taghighlight plugin and run the following command in the ~/.vim/bundle/directory:

HG Clone Https://bitbucket.org/abudden/taghighlight

Wait a short period of time, waiting for taghighlight download, you can use it.
