I always recommend include the contents of vimrc_example.vim instead of just source the file by :runtime. By including the contents of vimrc_example.vim we know all it has done and we can change it anyway. i.e. chang the .vimrc is a good way, changing the $VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim is NOT a good pratice. (vimrc_example fits the need of the author but it definetely do not fit everyone, so I suggest most users to change it and create their own .vimrc.) The second reason: vimrc_example.vim comes from the distribution and it may change, when it change it may silently break our existing scripts or configurations. include the contents into our .vimrc minimize the incompatible changes. So the better practise to create a new .vimrc may be: just copy the vimrc_example.vim to ~/.vimrc -- Sincerely, Pan, Shi Zhu. ext: 2606
