Text Editor - VIM

Vim is a highly configurable text editor for efficiently creating and changing any kind of text

I’ve been using Vundle to manage my vim plugins for past years and I also wrote about Vundle. Vundle is still good but I’m just wondering which is good for managing vim plugins in now a days. See this compared post. as you can see, many people recommand to use Vim-plug, so I aim to install Vim-plug in my new machine.

Vim-plug is a free, open source, very fast, minimalist vim plugin manager.

Setting up

Download plug.vim and put it in the “autoload” directory.

$ curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
    https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

Installing plugins

Open ~/.vimrc and declare the list of plugins you want to use in your Vim configuration file.

" Plugins will be downloaded under the specified directory.
call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')

" Declare the list of plugins.

"Vim color scheme
Plug 'junegunn/seoul256.vim'

" List ends here. Plugins become visible to Vim after this call.
call plug#end()

Reload vimrc(:source ~/.vimrc) and :PlugInstall to install plugins.
