I don't see why you shouldn't be able to symlink ~/.theonevimlib_config
to another location so that you can track it wit svn as well? it's even
better. You can define a function which returns the list of
configuration files. So you decide where to store this setup.
For details see
http://github.com/MarcWeber/theonevimlib/tree/master/core/autoload/config.vim
option config.filesFunc. You can tweak it easily to merge project
specific setups as well.
The main reason is: There are many vim users out there. And you'll meet
some which already have mapped <F5> to functionality X. So your plugin
wants to map <F5> as well? What to do now? Keep local patches (using
subversion?)
Force the other user to change his mapping? ...
That's why the separate configuration is the onlny way to go (IMHO)..
Wether it must look the way its done in the exapmle I don't know yet.
You can also use configuration option like this
dictionary : plugin =
dictionary : myplugin =
mappings_exec : string =
map <c-x> :call FooBar()<cr>
map <c-y> :call FooBar()<cr>
map <c-z> :call FooBar()<cr>
Note that you can enter multiline Strings this way easily..
So what makes this different from putting it into your .vimrc?
Its faster. You enable the plugin, reload (the plugin will add its
default to the config, but won't override settings which are already
present) . Then you can start customizing. You don't Have to open many
files. We'll add a command :ConfigHelp or such and you'll know what an
option is about. If you have to you can still dive into the code (which
you should for security reasons, see post by Bram). Keep feeding your
input and give me a chance to make this more valuable than a custom
setup.
