Installation

Having the latest version of Vim is recommended to ensure that everything works.

• On macOS, install the latest version with Homebrew using brew install vim.
• On Linux, getting the latest version will vary between distributions.

Backup your .vim folder and .vimrc file. (I am not responsible for any data loss.)
