Customization

Feel free to explore the VIMRC file you've downloaded. It's a plain text file, so you can modify it using any text editor. Within the VIMRC, you'll find comments that explain various sections. If you're comfortable with Vimscript, you can tailor the settings to match your preferences.

I highly recommend reading the Vim documentation to learn more about Vimscript and how to customize your VIMRC.

Language Specific Settings

I recommend that you do your language specific settings in the after/ftplugin directory, this way you can keep your VIMRC clean and organized.

This can be done by creating a file in the after/ftplugin directory with the name of the filetype, for example after/ftplugin/<filetype>.vim for <filetype> specific settings.

For example:

" after/ftplugin/python.vim
setlocal textwidth=80   " Set the textwidth to 80 characters
setlocal noexpandtab    " Use tabs instead of spaces
setlocal autoindent     " Automatically indent new lines
