This is my .vimrc

• gcc comments/uncomments a line of code
• <tab> does code completion
• ,v opens your vim settings, ,sv sources them

Installation

To install, make sure you get gmarik's Vundle, then run the following commands.

git clone [email protected]:philngo/vimrc.git
cp vimrc/.vimrc ~
git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
vim +PluginInstall +qall

You may also want to get the corresponding solarized theme for your terminal.

Recommended usage

I recommend opening vim with the raw vim command, then using <C-p> to open files from there into new buffers. This will get you in the habit of always opening files with fuzzy search instead of hopping around between directories and trying to remember the exact names of files.

Make sure to customize the Ctrl-P wildcard ignores to suit your own usage, and add and subtract plugins of your own.
