This repo contains useful VIM settings and Plugins I use in my .vimrc (for Linux) and _vimrc (for Windows).

Summary

• Relative numbering
• Folding based based on markers that start with /* and end with */
• Highlighting tabs or whitespace at end of line in RED
• Keeping cursor centered vertically
• Mapping 'jj' and 'kk' to <esc>
• New mappings for navigating through split screens
• Remapping CapsLock to Ctrl (not really a capability of VIM)
• Paste code with formatting preserved

• :version contains useful info such as supported features, 32/64-bit compiled, dll used, etc.)

• git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git $HOME/vimfiles/bundle/Vundle.vim (deprecated)
• git clone https://github.com/muhammedabdelkader/VundleVim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim

This may come in handy when trying to figure out where vim looks to execute .vimrc

• vim --version | grep vimrc (to get path of all vimrc files) Note: Output will be different when executed from Terminal versus from gVIM app

For Linux , .vimrc usually lives under ~/.vimrc For Windows, _vimrc usually lives under $HOME

Depending on the output of the command above

• git clone https://github.com/davidclin/vim.git
• cd vim
• cp _vimrc $HOME_vimrc (tip: use Notepad if you're unable to edit the file using other programs then copy file to $HOME_vimrc)

• launch gVIM
• :PluginList
• :PluginInstall
• :PluginUpdate

• choco install -y pycharm-community
• pin Pycharm to taskbar
• launch Pycharm and download IdeaVim and AWS Toolkit during install
• copy _vimrc to $HOME_ideavimrc
• (OPTIONAL) create new Python file in Pycharm then Ctrl+Alt+S --> Project:PycharmProjects --> Python Interpreter --> '+' sign --> type boto3 --> Install package
