vim-illuminate VS vim-plug

The vim-illuminate plugin offers the goto_next_reference() and goto_prev_reference() to navigate to next/previous reference of the word under the cursor.

vim-illuminate (https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate) might be what you're looking for. It also has Alt-N/Alt-P mappings by default for jumping between matches.

You can add a prefix that's specific to your plugin, or just have a single field specific to your plugin's name which takes a table. Alternatively, in one of my plugins I use .configure strictly for configuration, which doesn't init the plugin, see https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate/issues/112. The majority of configuration shouldn't be needed though if you have strong defaults, just look at tpope plugins.

Found it, vim-illuminate.

I think you're looking for vim-illuminate.

Does it do anything different from illuminate?

Ok, my guess is that you are using RRethy/vim-illuminate, xiyaowong/nvim-cursorword, or mini.cursorword. All of them use underline as default highlighting for word under cursor. And that you tried ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim variant of Gruvbox, which doesn't explicitly support none of them.

setup is deprecated, use the opts table directly. Related stuff. Note that Leap is internally lazy-loaded anyway.

vim-plug

Did you really install VimTeX? Did you run :PlugInstall? Ensure you installed and set up vim-plug correctly (https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug). If VimTeX is installed, it should be installed to '~/.vim/plugged', thus you can open a terminal, then cd ~/.vim/plugged/vimtex and you should find the files there.

If you're determined to use vim for some reason, I'd suggest checking out vim-plug: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug. Quite useful for installing and maintaining all of the plugins that you're going to need to get vim to provide even a subset of the features offered by modern editors.

I encourage you to add plugins to your vim (tip: use vim-plug). Use vimawesome.com for inspiration.

Personally, I like https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug

But the plugin manager https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug can also install from offline sources, without accessing Github:

To get started, simply install the plugin using your favorite plugin manager, such as vim-plug or packer.nvim. You can find detailed installation instructions in the README.

Not sure if Vundle did anything particularly fancy, but I'm using vim-plug [0] and have no complaints. It stays out of my way to the point that I had to look at my .vimrc just now to make sure that's what I was using.

I chose to move on to vim-plug and can report it was a simple switch from Vundle.
