Where can you find plugins?
- Some come with Vim. You can find them in the directory $VIMRUNTIME/
macros and its sub-directories.

I've started writing with Vim. For now it'll be mainly in my journal and to
keep todo lists. Very awkward, of course, but I can move around; insert and
delete text; create, save, and open files.
I did :set linebreak in a file. I see that it isn't retained when I save,

I would like to point out vundle [1] in addition to the already mentioned

installations and very easy to use.
Finally, can I specify a default font? If so, how do I determine what fonts
are available?
For now I'm using MacVim for now, since it allows me to started a little more

I copied it into my home directory and set it as a hidden file, using terminal
(I suppose you can use Finder, but I don't like Finder much). Having the
.gvimrc file in your home file makes it easier
when I run
echo -e '\033[?1h\033=' ; cat ; echo -e '\033[?1l\033'
I really got ^[OA^[OB.
and then I tried
set t_ku=^[OA
as you said(I hit the ctrl-vesc to input the ^[).
but unfortunately it doesn't work. I still got the same
problem.
