This is my ~/.vim dir and this, dear reader, is a horse:

               ,
              / \,,_  .'|
           ,{{| /}}}}/_.'
          }}}}` '{{'  '.
        {{{{{    _   ;, \
     ,}}}}}}    /o`\  ` ;)
    {{{{{{   /           (
    }}}}}}   |            \
   {{{{{{{{   \            \          ,-------------------------------.
   }}}}}}}}}   '.__      _  |        /       HI                        \
   {{{{{{{{       /`._  (_\ /       /      /   \                        |
    }}}}}}'      |    //___/   --= <   VVVI     HI-HI-HI                |
jgs `{{{{`       |     '--'         \                   \               |
     }}}`                            \                  HIM-HIM-HIM!!!  /

About

This setup uses pathogen to allow each vim plugin its own directory. plugins.txt contains the list of active vim plugins and is simply a list of git repositories.

Path descriptions:

  • after/plugin/: plugin-specific vim files
  • autoload/: contains pathogen.vim
  • backup/: used by &backupdir to store backup files
  • plugins/: where plugins are git cloned and added to runtime by pathogen
  • plugins.txt: list of plugins
  • rc/: additional files sourced by vimrc, split up by use i.e. keys + functions
  • snippets: used by snipmate plugin
  • vimrc: where it all starts - mostly setting options
