MacVim / Windows gVim

Requirements

Mac

• MacVim - I'm currently using snapshot 64

Windows

• gVim - I'm currently using Wu Yongwei's pre-compiled gVim 7.3.333 because it has Ruby support and the latest patches

Notes

Be sure to always edit the vimrc using ,v, which opens the vimrc in the .vim folder. Vim has a nasty habit of overriding symlinks.

Plugin Installation / Requirements

I may make this more verbose later, but for now, here's a list of plugins that require further installation:

• Command-T Needs compilation.
• Fugitive Requires Git to be installed.
• syntastic Requires many different binaries installed depending on what filetypes you want it to check.
• ack.vim Requires ack to be installed.
• Menlo for Powerline The custom font I'm using for vim-powerline.
