(rebuild this list with r!ls bundle)

Install

• clone repository into .vim
• run rake init to set up some basic things. This command should only ever be run once
• open vim, and run :BundleInstall. This will use vundle to install the latest version of all plugins into ~/.vim/bundle/.
• close vim, and run rake plugin:setup. This will do things like compile binaries required for some plugins.
• Reopen vim. Should see solarized light and everything should be working
• win

File Structure

• after(/plugin/keymaps.vim): All custom key maps are in here, so that they get priority over plugins
• autoload: pathogen (plugin management system) is installed here
• backup: location for all vim temp files
• bundle: All plugins are installed here by vundle

vimrc

vimrc is basically just a bootstrap file that will load each of the following files

• settings.vim: editor config
• vundles.vim: plugin management configuration by vundle
• plugin-config: keymaps and settings
• autocmds.vim: setting up things to do with hooks
• functions.vim: a bunch of functions, mostly pillaged from other peoples vimrc files
• statusline.vim: bunch of customizations for the modeline (lifted from scrooloose's vimrc)
• keymaps.vim: link to bundle/plugin/keymaps.vim for convenience

Notes

due to the way vundle works, you need to be in vim to invoke it, but there are a lot of configuration settings that depend on specific plugins to be installed. To avoid a ton of errors, most of the configuration will not load until a file exists in ~/.vim/.plugins_installed. if the installation instructions are followed, you shouldn't have to worry about this, but it can be useful to know if something isn't working.
