Vim
Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and changing any kind of text very efficient. It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple macOS.
Installation
Because we want an addon thats called You complete me, we cant use the standard vim that comes with the macbook pro.
To install the latest version, use homebrew:
brew install vim
Set the following infront of your path so when you use vim <file> it will open the version you just installed via homebrew.
In .zshrc copy it should look something like this:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH
Now you have vim with python 8 so you can use all the features of your normal text editor in vim.
The Ultimate vimrc
The Ultimate vimrc is a collection of vimrc configurations to make easy the usage of vim.
To download the The Ultimate vimrc, you need to install the git client. If you need install it, use home brew:
brew install git
Now, download the vimrc files:
git clone https://github.com/amix/vimrc.git ~/.vim_runtime
To install the complete version, run:
sh ~/.vim_runtime/install_awesome_vimrc.sh
To install the basic version, run:
sh ~/.vim_runtime/install_basic_vimrc.sh
