A great way to store vim plugins, for example, is to have a project called project called plugin and check it out into your~/.vim directory. You could make .vim a project, but I like the flexibility and control of having smaller pieces when I get set up on a new host.
The latest plugin I’m enjoying, by the way, is NerdTree . I’m working on a video demonstrating it, as a tool for Rails development. This is part of a larger project which will go public in about two weeks. The goal of that project: To optimize the process of learning something well.
I’m a Vim lover as well. Netbeans 6 has converted me though, especially with jVi support. So you can keep your home row Vim skills and use all the awesome Netbeans features. This sounds like a sales pitch. But I’m loving it though, so I wanted to spread the word.
Anyways I blogged about it today.
