# A modular vim configuration
-This is my personal vim configuration that is partly inspired by
-[SpaceVim](https://spacevim.org/). It is compatible to vim, gvim (8.0+) and
-neovim (0.2+). The configuration is split up into multiple files such that
-personal customization is separated from boilerplate code.

+This is my personal vim configuration. The [git
+repo](https://git.sthu.org/?p=vimconf.git;a=summary) of this configuration is
+under constant flux, however, it should be compatible with (g)vim (8.0+) and
+neovim (0.2+), yet some features are only available with newer versions.

+## Flavors on different machines
+
+I would like to use this configuration on a large variety of machines with
+different needs. To accommodate for this, the configuration is split up into
+multiple files and a different set of plugins is used:
+
+- In any case, the plugin set in `plugins.vim` is loaded.
+- If run as non-root user, an additional plugin set in `plugins-noroot.vim` is
+ loaded.
+- If run on a no-low-end-box, an additional plugin set in
+ `plugins-noroot-nolowendbox.vim` is loaded. A low-end box is indicated by the
+ existence of the file `lowendbox`, e.g., on my Raspberry Pi installations.
+- Also, if `plugins-local.vim` exists, this plugin set is loaded, too. For
+ instance, on one machine I have gnupg and corresponding vim plugins
+ configured.
+
+Similar to `plugins-local.vim`, also the following files are sourced if
+existent:
+
+ - `macros-local.vim`
+ - `keymaps-local.vim`
+ - `init-local.vim`
+
+Example files are shipped with the repository.

## Installation
### Requirements
`~/.vimrc`) and then creates symlinks to configuration files in `~/.vim`.
-## Specialization for local machines
-
-I personally would like to have the same vim configuration on all my user
-accounts. Still, on certain machines I would like to personalize and specialize
-the configuration. The following files are sourced if existent:
-
- - plugins-local.vim
- - macros-local.vim
- - keymaps-local.vim
- - init-local.vim
-
-Example files are shipped with the repository.
