Hi Tim, Bram, In a "gradient minimalist" mode of vim, devoid of plugins, it might be interesting to have a file that contains the necessary facilities by default. In particular facilities, features allowing you to switch from this minimalist Vim mode to a more extensive mode including personal plugins and other functions...
As long as the defaults.vim file is in the same folder as $MYVIMRC, is the defaults.vim file sourced on Vim startup? I personally need this functionnality : in Vim minimalist "*degraded*" mode : *defaults.vim* is the only in $vim so facilities *it *is embedding are sourced in Vim extended "*operational*" mode : *both **defaults.vim* *and **_vimrc *are in $vim, so facilities *_vimrc *is embedding are sourced. Is it possible Bram ?
