This is the personal vim config of Thomas Veilleux (aka HumbleWebDev).

Special thanks to:

• Steve Francia for spf13-vim
• Marc Weber for Vundle
• Aleksey Khudyakov (aka Xerkus) for adding git-treeish support to Vundle
• All of the authors of the other amazing Vim plugins I use every day.

• If you have an existing vim configuration, back it up:
  • for i in $HOME/.vim $HOME/.vimrc $HOME/.gvimrc; do [ -e $i ] && mv $i $i.`date +%Y%m%d`; done
• git clone --recursive https://github.com/HumbleWebDev/vim-configuration.git $HOME/hwd-vim
• ln -s $HOME/hwd-vim $HOME/.vim
• ln -s $HOME/hwd-vim/.vimrc $HOME/.vimrc
• vim +BundleInstall! +BundleClean +q (You may see some errors about colorscheme or other things, just hit enter and ignore them.)
• Copy config.local.vim.dist to config.local.vim and set your base workspace directory.
• Create an override.local.vim to override settings such as fonts and stuff.

" Example override.local.vim
let g:Powerline_symbols = 'fancy'
set guifont=Inconsolata\ for\ Powerline\ 11

This config ships with the following basic customizations for vim:

• :w!! invokes a write with sudo.
• Trailing whitespace is highlighted in red.
• Trailing whitespace is automatically removed when saving c, cpp, java, php, javascript, python, twig, xml, yml, phtml, or vimrc files.
• Tab characters displayed as ▸
• Make searching highlighted, incremental, and case insensitive unless a capital letter is used.
• Gvim gui cleaned up (removes menu bars and buttons).
• F1 is mapped to to prevent accidental opening of help.
• ; is remapped to : for easier transition into command mode.
• The Vim backup, swap, and view files are consolidated in one place so they do not interfere with your workspace.

This configuration is fully customizable If you want to customize the config, you should not need to fork and/or make changes directly to the .vimrc. Instead, you can simply create an override.local.vim file in your vim directory and override any settings there.

• <C-a> - Select all
• <leader>w - Write current file
• <leader>c and <leader>v - Copy and paste with the system clipboard

Using a patched version of ctags, you can now enjoy smart, namespace, trait, and context-aware auto-completion for PHP in vim. The phpcomplete.vim included in my config already has support for the more intelligent tag files.

• General
  • NERDTree
  • NERDTree-symlink (small plugin by me to allow easily creating symlinks from NERDTree)
  • ctrlp.vim
  • Powerline
  • numbers.vim
  • FuzzyFinder (and dependency L9)
• Themes
  • Lucius (default)
  • Solarized
  • vim-colors (contains a ton of additional themes)
• General Programming
  • fugitive
  • tabular
  • syntastic
  • gist-vim (and dependency webapi-vim)

(TODO: There's more -- I need to finish this list)

vim-zoom allows you to zoom in and out (adjusts font size) by simply holding control and using your scroll wheel:

Powerline provides a sexy looking status bar:

Git diff info (+/-/~) in the gutter area vim-gitgutter (port of the Sublime 2 Git Gutter plugin).

vim-multiple-cursors provides multiple cursor support just like Sublime:

Inline syntax checking provided by Syntastic:

NERDTree provides a powerful IDE-like tree explorer:

Quickly and easily post code to Gists thanks to gist-vim:

Awesome Git/Github integration courtesy of fugitive:

Tabbing made easy with Tabular:

Quick PHP getter/setter generation with php_getset.vim

Write HTML insanely fast using Emmet-vim:

In ~/.gtkrc-2.0 put the following:

style "vimfix" {
  bg[NORMAL] = "#303030" # this matches my gVim theme 'Normal' bg color.
}
widget "vim-main-window.*GtkForm" style "vimfix"

(This still works with Gnome-shell and GTK3, because GVIM is using GTK2 still.
