Usage

• Slime: open a new pane in terminal along with vim, start a named screen session (eg screen -S vim_out), back in vim select text and <Ctrl-cc> will send text to the screen session. If you don't select text, the whole paragraph will be sent.
• CtrlP: <Ctrl-p> for a fuzzy file finder.
• NERDTree: to open a folder explorer, :NERDTree within vim.
• Markdown preview: When editing a markdown file, <Ctrl-m>. Preview will appear in Chrome. <Ctrl-m> to refresh.
• There will be an error on startup of vim 8 if you don't follow these steps:
  • Find out what python version vim is using: :pythonx import sys; print(sys.path)
  • Note that path. As of this writing it was: /opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/.
  • In a terminal, pip install pynvim to that python version (which is not the global python version):

  PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH" pip3 install pynvim
