hey spawnazzo, did you ever get vim-indent working?

On my current setup nope previously yes.

her commented

when you removed awesome vimrc did you create a new .vimrc? What did you put in your .vimrc?

sorry about the difficulties! I'm on OS X 10.10.3, using Vundle instead of Pathogen, but was able to get it installed. have you tried using Vundle?

Of course i created another .vimrc ;) and i put just what was written in the Readme. The problem is that in my other mac works fine, in my company ones it does not.

I'll try to use vundle and let you know

Installed vundle and did a :PluginList the plugin is not listed (but is present in the bundle folder of course)

her commented

nice! and yah haha I figured you did just had to ask :b

with Vundle in your .vimrc double check your run time path

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

Plugin 'nathanaelkane/vim-indent-guides'

call vundle#end()

then load up vim and run :PluginInstall

and you should be good!! in vim you can :IndentGuidesEnabled and then you should see them :)

let me know if this works. gl!

ok so

set nocompatible              " be iMproved, required

filetype off                  " required

syn on
set nu

" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
"call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')

" let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Plugin 'gmarik/Vundle.vim'
Plugin 'nathanaelkane/vim-indent-guides'

colorscheme bclear
set ts=2 sw=2 et
let g:indent_guides_start_level=2

" The following are examples of different formats supported.
" Keep Plugin commands between vundle#begin/end.
" plugin on GitHub repo
Plugin 'tpope/vim-fugitive'
" plugin from http://vim-scripts.org/vim/scripts.html

" Git plugin not hosted on GitHub
Plugin 'git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git'
" git repos on your local machine (i.e. when working on your own plugin)
" Plugin 'file:///home/gmarik/path/to/plugin'
" The sparkup vim script is in a subdirectory of this repo called vim.
" Pass the path to set the runtimepath properly.
Plugin 'rstacruz/sparkup', {'rtp': 'vim/'}
" Avoid a name conflict with L9
Plugin 'user/L9', {'name': 'newL9'}

" All of your Plugins must be added before the following line
call vundle#end()            " required
filetype plugin indent on    " required
" To ignore plugin indent changes, instead use:
"filetype plugin on

" Brief help
" :PluginList       - lists configured plugins
" :PluginInstall    - installs plugins; append `!` to update or just :PluginUpdate
" :PluginSearch foo - searches for foo; append `!` to refresh local cache
" :PluginClean      - confirms removal of unused plugins; append `!` to auto-approve removal
"
" see :h vundle for more details or wiki for FAQ
" Put your non-Plugin stuff after this line

i can see the plugin in the list but cannot see any indent line what's missing?

okay so

colorscheme bclear
set ts=2 sw=2 et
let g:indent_guides_start_level_2

needs to go after

call vundle#end()

look at the last line of your .vimrc: " " Put your non-plugin stuff after this line

make sure you're doing that.

Once you set that then go to CL and just $ vim

once vim opens run :PluginInstall

:q vim and start a new vim session $ vim

once vim opens run :IndentGuidesEnabled

then bask in the glory of indent guides xD

Let me know if this helps. GL!!

hey spawnazzo, sorry if that above comment seemed a little disjointed, wrote it on mobile >.>

But I was wondering if you got it going? I hope so..

Ok 👍 now it works still wondering why was not working in my other setup.
Thanks for helping anyway
