**Vi is a terminal based text editor - Vim is a improved version. We'll be using Gvim, which is Vim that support GTK/X.**

== Installation ==
$ pacman -S gvim

**# To manage plugins, install a package manager**
$ yaourt -S vim-pathogen-git


===== Configuration =====
**# You'll find the configuration at **//~/.vimrc //**(Github)**

== Color Scheme ==
**# The script for changing colors on the fly (Github) should be placed in **//~/.vim/plugin/setcolors.vim//
**# Create the folder and Symlink the script**
$ mkdir ~/.vim/plugin
$ ln -s /home/stick/dotfiles/.vim/plugin/setcolors.vim /home/stick/.vim/plugin/

== Remove White GTK Border ==
**# Gvim has a ugly thick white border, which it inherits from the GTK settings. **
**# Edit/Create **//~/.gtkrc-2.0//** and paste the following**
{{{code: lang="texinfo" linenumbers="True"
style "no-resize-handle"
{
    GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
    GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
}

class "GtkWidget" style "no-resize-handle"
style "vimfix" {
  bg[NORMAL] = "#242424" # this matches my gvim theme 'Normal' bg color.
}
widget "vim-main-window.*GtkForm" style "vimfix"
}}}



===== Modelines =====
**# According to my vimrc, Vim will check the bottom of the file it's editing **
**# You can specify document specific settings in this line. **

== Fold markers (easy overview when opening file again) ==
**#** **If you've created markers in your document **//{{{ }}}// 
**# Place this at the bottom to make it open collapsed next time**
