This is a modified version of a nice vim status line script created by Tomas Restrepo. The original can be seen here:
This version has small readability modifications. Main purposed of hosting it here is to make this script compatible with Pathogen plugin manager.
Here is how this status line will look in Gvim on Windows with the Solarized color scheme:

- Vim Mode (green box)
- Server name / session name (black box)

To install with Pathogen:
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/maciakl/vim-neatstatus.git
If your .vim is under source control with Git do this instead:
cd ~/.vim
git submodule add git://github.com/maciakl/vim-neatstatus.git bundle/vim-neatstatus
git submodule init
git submodule update
Installing without pathogen:
