Installation:
1. Clone the repository to your home directory:
git clone git@github.com:frimicc/dotvim.git ~/.vim
2. Create a symlink for the default .vimrc & .gvimrc locations:
ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc ~/.vimrc
ln -s ~/.vim/gvimrc ~/.gvimrc
3. Load the submodules (all the bundles):
cd ~/.vim
git submodule update --init
That should be it! You should be ready to use vim and enjoy my dotvim options.
------
