1# INSTALL
2# this should briefly show you how to install this bundle
3#
4# step 1)
5# download the current version using git
6git clone http://git.entwicklerseite.de/vim .vim/
7
8# step 2)
9# create a symbolic link to the downloaded vim.rc in you $HOME-directory
10ln -s .vim/vimrc .vimrc
11
12# step 3)
13# get vim submodules, namely this is just vundle as this will download the rest by itsown
14git submodule update --init --recursive
15
16# step 4)
17# fix errors caused by the different vim version you might be using and define the spell checkers language. Starting Vim will show you which lines are not supported on your vim installation so that you can fix them:
18vim vimrc
19
20# step 5)
21# download plugins and spell file for your language
22vim -c ":VundleUpdate"
23vim -c ":set spell"
24# vim +set\ spell # < maybe that works as well
25
26# step 6)
27# build YouCompleteMe (if you plan to use it)
28cd plugins/YouCompleteMe
29python2 ./install.py --clang-completer
30
31
32# step 7)
33# create an entry in file managers right click menu 'open with' allowing you to open the file in a vim tab
34mkdir -p .local/share/Thunar/sendto/
35cp ~/.vim/gvim-tab.desktop ~/.local/share/Thunar/sendto/
36
37# step 8)
38# add gvim functionality to thunar, so that sendto can be used to open a file in an existing vim instance (as a tab in this case)
39cp ~/.vim/gvim-tab.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
40update-desktop-database ~/.local/share/applications/
