Vim workshop

This repo contains the slides for my vim talk. Additionally, I have provided a starter vimrc and tmux.conf. These may be a good starting point for someone getting into vim and tmux.

Check out the presentation PDF.

Vim setup instructions

Download vim

Likely, vim is already installed on you machine. If you're on a mac, you can get the latest vim from Homebrew.
```
sudo apt install vim
```
Create a vimrc

Create a vim configuration file in your home directory and a .vim/bundle directory
```
cp vimrc ~/.vimrc
mkdir -p ~/.vim/bundle
```

Add vundle

If you'd like to use vundle to manage plugins, you can install it as a git submodule

git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/vundle

You will also need to let vim know about vundle by adding it to your ~/.vimrc.

set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vundle/
call vundle#begin()

" let vundle manage vundle
Plugin 'gmarik/vundle'

" list all plugins that you'd like to install here
Plugin 'kien/ctrlp.vim' " fuzzy find files
Plugin 'scrooloose/nerdtree' " file drawer, open with :NERDTreeToggle
Plugin 'benmills/vimux'
Plugin 'tpope/vim-fugitive' " the ultimate git helper
Plugin 'tpope/vim-commentary' " comment/uncomment lines with gcc or gc in visual mode

call vundle#end()
filetype plugin indent on

Start vim and install plugins

vim
:PluginInstall //install plugins
:PluginClean //clean uselesss plugin
