Personal Vim Settings

I have used vim since 2007, it was a very nice editor and I think it was once of the best investments in my life because even when it was little bit complicated to understand it at the beginning is my first tools when I code or when I need to change configurations files on a server.

The only challenge with this great tool is to try to migrate my settings from one computer to an other one, almost all the time I ends to just look on internet some vimrc samples that help to what I want to do for each moment.

Given that inconvenient I create this repo to keep my configurations up and running and ready to be copied for me to an other machine. At the same time I hope that my configuration could help to some one else.

Special thanks

I took a lot of configurations from amix, I really recommend you to take a look on his repo and check the way that he organize his settings, it is really awesome.

In the other hand I really like the plugin vim-plug, to make my configuration portable I just copy its main configuration file but I really recommend to take a look on its repo to understand all the nice features that vim-plug provide.
