Install

1. Let's clone this repo! Clone to ~/.config/nvim, we'll also symlink it for Vim:

mkdir ~/.config
git clone git://github.com/rafi/vim-config.git ~/.config/nvim
ln -s ~/.config/nvim ~/.vim

Note: If your system sets $XDG_CONFIG_HOME, use that instead of ~/.config in the code above. Nvim follows the XDG base-directories convention.

2. Almost done! You'll need a YAML interpreter, if you have Ruby installed - you can skip this step. Otherwise, either install yaml2json, or use Python:

pip3 install --user --upgrade PyYAML

3. If you are a first-time Neovim user, you need the python-neovim packages. Don't worry, run the script provided:

cd ~/.config/nvim
./venv.sh

4. Run make test to test your nvim/vim version and compatibility.

5. Run make to install all plugins.

Enjoy!
