This is originally meant to be easy, but I ran into a few problems setting this up. 1. Vader. I've seen it used before, but I just hadn't gotten into it as a testing framework. It's basically like RSPec but for Vimscript. I had to get this installed, no problem. Once that was up, I could run Vader tests. 2. For some reason, after I changed the text in the function, it did not reload the function in Vim even after I re-sourced the file. I don't know if it's cos I was recording the session through a streaming software while I tried to code, or something was just wrong with my setup. I had to quit Vim altogether and return; then I could source the right function into the Vim runtime, and pass my Vader tests. 3. I had originally thought to stream this… but I am quickly realizing my choice of using a Macbook Air was because I didn't plan to be heavy on audiovisuals. If there's some Vim Teletype-type plugin, that would be ideal. Until I am doing this on a more powerful computer, there'll be no streaming
