Hi Tim, I've added your solution to http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/topic/vim%20plugin%20managment.html If you additional notes about your tools edit the page.
Please learn about the github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager-known-repositories effort. It tries to collect git urls and associate them with plugins found on www.vim.org. Additionally it has a way to make people aware about issues, such as "deprecations" when installing. VAM's solution has been http://vam.mawercer.de/ for windows users. If you were about adding all plugins - then you'd better introduce categories such as 'vim-plugins'. The package manager is also missing a search feature? > To enable all plugins installed by Npackd it is only necessary to include > these 2 lines in .vimrc: > exec ':source ' . $ALLUSERSPROFILE . > '/Npackd/VimPlugins/vim-pathogen/autoload/pathogen.vim' > execute pathogen#infect($ALLUSERSPROFILE . '/Npackd/VimPlugins/{}') > > What do you think about it? Is this useful? Well - some people just use "dropbox" and manager their plugins on linux like operating systems. Others use cygwin or install git and move on. If we manage to package most important packages to that platform, I guess people will start using it - because it looks nice. I really think we should move contents from vim-addon-manager-known-repositories into something people can query easily (eg by http) - along with a way to retrieve plugins easily. Lack of time and resources :( Thus if you're looking for an automatic way to retrieve packages by .zip let me know. I think I can improve the interface of vam.mawercer.de with little effort to allow you or your users querying packages easily. I cannot imagine you wanting to maintain many packages. VAM-kr contains about 1200 version control urls. I didn't even notice them appearing .. ZyX has contributed at least approx 1000 of those - I've no idea how many of those are widely used.
