vundle VS vimrc

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.

Vundle https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim

For example, a link to Git for Windows on Vundle's wiki was replaced with a link to malware:

https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim/wiki/Vundle-for-Windows/_compare/3aeb22ac39229af4312f2be1052ead184dd5b54d...aa3d293dd18ae1cb4f049c43b73b951651515863

In fact, all five recent edits, made by three different accounts, were malicious:

https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim/wiki/Vundle-for-Windows/_history

I recommend restricting editing in your GitHub wikis to collaborators only.

## Vundle Install Script function install-vundle() { git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim; sudo gem install vundle-cli; if ! grep -Fxq 'set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim' ~/.vimrc then echo "\nset nocompatible\nfiletype off\nset rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim\ncall vundle#begin()\n\nPlugin 'VundleVim/Vundle.vim'\n\ncall vundle#end()\nfiletype plugin indent on" >> ~/.vimrc; fi }

A typo. I meant vundle. VimBundle

there are several vimrc files: https://github.com/amix/vimrc

Vim with https://github.com/amix/vimrc

If you want my five cents, then I would say that using something like https://github.com/amix/vimrc without fully understanding the consequences, is a bad idea. And instead you should focus on the basics of vim, vimtutor followed by :h user-manual.

text editors for writing files. Recommended: install plugins ultimate vim to make vim more powerful and colorful.

Archcraft's vim uses this vimrc which adds a lot of plugins including some for improving appearance, so it's more suited for a terminal emulator than a tty.

I'm basically using this as a base with some tweaks :)

Or if you want something very minimal, just for easier editing experience when connected to server, try just a simple preconfigured vimrc file, where you can comment and uncomment stuff that you might need. I use amix as base for my own vimrc file.

git clone https://github.com/amix/vimrc.git ~/.vim_runtime
