# INSTALL
# this should briefly show you how to install this bundle


# [required steps]

# Download the current version using git (probably you already have!)
git clone http://git.entwicklerseite.de/vim ~/.vim

# Get the required submodule(s)
git submodule update --init --recursive

# start vim for the first time and use the plugin manager to install required plugins
vim -c ":PlugInstall"

# build YouCompleteMe
cd ~/.vim/plugged/YouCompleteMe
python ./install.py --clang-completer




# [optional steps]
# create a symbolic link to the downloaded vim.rc in you $HOME-directory
ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc ~/.vimrc

# gvim: make menu bar more fancy
ln -s ~/.vim/gtk-3.0.css ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

# if you do not have working gvim start menu entries, try:
ln -s ~/.vim/gvim-tab.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
update-desktop-database       ~/.local/share/applications/

# Thunar file manager specific: create an entry in the sendto menu...
mkdir -p                      ~/.local/share/Thunar/sendto/
ln -s ~/.vim/gvim-tab.desktop ~/.local/share/Thunar/sendto/



# [random/unfinished stuff]
# download plugins and spell file for your language
# vim -c ":set spell"
# vim +set\ spell # < maybe that works as well
# :call spellfile#LoadFile(expand("de"))

# vim: noai:ts=2:sw=2 filetype=csh nolist
