Verified

Tested with Unity 2019.4.3 on multiple platforms:

  • On macOS with MacVim installed via brew.
  • On Windows with Gvim installed via scoop (vim-nightly).

Installation

Add this line to your Packages/manifest.json:

"com.github.idbrii.unity-vimeditor": "https://github.com/idbrii/unity-vimeditor.git#latest-release",

Win: Edit > Preferences > External Tools Mac: Unity > Preferences > External Tools

Then select "Vim (gvim.exe)" from the "External Script Editor" dropdown. "(gvim.exe)" will vary based on your vim setup -- if you have the .bat files installed, you can choose them.
