  • Will installing Vim get rid of my current work on macOS?
    4 projects | /r/vim | 19 May 2023
    I'm confused. What install guide are you talking about to be specific (as in, please actually send a link)? The official repository is at https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim and it doesn't mention Python at all. From what I understand Vundle is not written in Python and should not have a dependency to it. If in doubt, consult official documentation rather than third-party tutorials and guides which could be wrong and/or including extra steps that are not necessary.

  • Can't get plugins to work with vundle
    3 projects | /r/vim | 14 Sep 2022
    I have just started using vim and already really like it. As I mainly want to use it for Python, I was trying to set up some relevant plugins (so far ale) using vundle. I have cloned the Vundle and ale folder into ~/.vim/bundle. But when I run :Pluginstall in my .vimrc get the errors:
  • Idea for a library manager
    6 projects | /r/openscad | 11 Jul 2022
    Let me start this by saying I am new to OpenSCAD, but I have an idea that I would be interested in working on if this is something people think would be useful. My idea is to make a library manager like Vundle that would do all the repository pulling and library management for me. Because OpenSCAD doesn't have a central repository for libraries like PyPI, and people have made some really cool libraries on GitHub, I think a manager like Vundle would be a good fit.

  • I use the default file browser in vim (netrw). I know there are plugins that a lot of people like. Should I switch?
    9 projects | /r/vim | 29 Jun 2023
    I personally use nerdtree. Add nerdtree-git-plugin too, that's nice when looking at your project (for files, use vim-gitgutter).

    2) Syntax check https://github.com/vim-syntastic/syntastic 3) File navigation https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree 4) Autocomplete There are many autocomplete extensions. I haven't found one that I feel comfortable to recommend. Another way is to create a txt file with all the key words and lines in the languages you use, make an autocommand that adds the txt file to the buffer, and then use ctrl-n or ctrl-p to autocomplete. You can also use ctrl-x-ctrl-l to autocmplete entire lines. 5) Running code Add commands in your .vmrc to run the current file as a a whatever file. I use :J to run java files, :P to run python files, :C to run c files and so on. For example, this is my command to run a java file: command J execute "!java %:t"

    My basic vim workflow is that I open vim, which opens NerdTree for me by default. I can find the file I want in NerdTree, or I can hit Ctrl+p to open a file with fuzzy searching.
  • How do you work with buffers?
    16 projects | /r/neovim | 1 Feb 2023
    What's also useful is to have a tree plugin (such as nvim-tree or nerdtree), so you can just open any file in the workspace (or outside it) if needed. That way, even if you delete a buffer, you can just come back to a file whose buffer you deleted.
