# A modular vim configuration This is my personal vim configuration that is partly inspired by SpaceVim. 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. ## Installation ### Requirements The install script that is shipped with this configuration also checks for the following requirements: - python3 support for vim/gvim - neovim python3 module - aspell Under a Debian-like Linux system you can install these by the following commands ```` sudo apt-get install aspell aspell-de python3-pip pip3 install neovim ```` ### Clone & install If you already have a vim configuration in place then you may first move your ~/.vim directory first ```` mv ~/.vim ~/.vim-old ```` Assumung that there is ~/.vim anymore, simply clone this repository into ~/.vim and invoke install.sh therein. ```` git clone https://git.sthu.org/repos/vimconf.git ~/.vim ~/.vim/install.sh ```` This install script creates backups of existing configuration files (e.g., ~/.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 accounts. Still, on certain machines I would like to personalize and specialize the configuration. The following files are read if existent: - plugins-local.vim - macros-local.vim - keymaps-local.vim - init-local.vim Example files are shipped with the repository. ## Terminal color settings For consistent background colors you may change the background colors of your terminal program to the gruvbox black #1c1c1c. Otherwise regions of your terminal may appear in a saturated black (#000) rather than the gruvbox black.
