Important
This repository will no longer be updated. After Github announced they're being "refounded on copilot" I figured it's time to go. I'm leaving a snapshot here, but the actively updated repository is https://git.sr.ht/~andrewradev/vimfiles.
This project is my vim setup. It's intended to work on a Linux box with a vim
compiled with +python
, though it should load just fine even otherwise, only
with less features.
To try it out, backup your .vimrc
and your .vim
directory and checkout this
repository as ~/.vim
and checkout all submodules:
git clone https://github.com/AndrewRadev/Vimfiles.git ~/.vim
cd ~/.vim

Occasionally, I remap built-in mappings, so use with caution, and preferably read "startup/mappings.vim" beforehand to avoid nasty surprises.
Alternatively, you can read and selectively pick stuff for your own configuration, which I highly recommend. A short guide to where you can find most of my customizations follows below. If you're interested in vim plugins I've published, you can find a list on my vim.org profile page.
The "startup" directory is basically my .vimrc
, except separated into
mappings, settings and so on. The borders between a few things are blurry,
though. The reason they're not in plugin
is because it's necessary to either
load them very early or load them in a specific order. Or, they just haven't
made sense to me as "plugins".
The "miniplugins" directory contains small scripts that I don't consider good plugin material, but are useful anyway.
The "wip" directory contains stuff that I'm currently working on. These are probably incomplete experiments that I can't build plugins from just yet. Note that I have a rather loose definition of "currently".
The "projects" directory holds "project" files. I use this in combination with the proj plugin to load some project-specific settings depending on what I'm working on right now.
The "nerdtree_plugin" directory is not the stock one that comes with the NERDTree plugin. It contains a few of my own scripts, although I've moved most of the interesting ones to a separate plugin called Andrew's NERDTree.
A lot of interesting things can be found in the "ftplugin" directory. I occasionally build useful stuff for filetypes I use often. These are probably not very generic or redistributable, which is why I tend to put them there.

You can view the contents of various kinds of binary files directly with Vim, thanks to Tim Pope's afterimage plugin and the JavaDecompiler plugin. This includes:
- PNG and GIF images. For best results, open in a GUI instance of Vim.
Requires
imagemagick
. - Word documents. Requires
antiword
. - PDFs. Requires
pdftk
. - Java
.class
files. Requiresjad

You can start an ASCII nyan cat in a new tab with the
:Nyancat
and:Nyancat2
commands, courtesy of the nyancat plugin -
You can turn any text into ASCII art by marking it in visual mode and executing
:Figlet
, implemented by the figlet plugin. Requires thefiglet
command. -
A plugin I made for April Fools:
:IsEven <number>
tells you if a number is even or not by making an API call to https://isevenapi.xyz.
- The file "autoload/lib.vim" contains (mostly) general-purpose functions I've felt could be useful in various places.
- The file "colors/andrew.vim" is my personal colorscheme, which is a modified elflord.
- The "after" directory may contain some interesting things that had to be placed there for late loading.
