Why

This plugin was made under the desire to have a powerful Swift development environment in vim. Although the plugin brings only a small feature ported from Xcode, I want to add at least one brick to the wall. This is as far as I can go at the moment with the amount of time it took to create this piece of code. I intend it to remain simple, yet useful. Contributions are welcomed.
