I'm definitely in the "newbie" stage of learning VIM - so bear with me on my
request...

As of right now, this is how I "launch" gvim on my Ubuntu PC and start
working:

   1. Super+T (keyboard shortcut I mapped to start the program)
   2. Alt+F10 - maximize the window
   3. :nto - shortcut to open NERDTree to my ~/public_html directory
   4. Ctrl+D and/or other movement keys to get to the directory of the
   project I want to open
   5. C (capital C) to make my project directory the 'base' directory for
   NERDTree
   6. variousl movement/NERDTree commands to open the files I want into the
   buffers
   7. :tnt - shortcut to toggle the NERDTree

I'm doing this EVERY TIME I launch vim.  While I've gotten used to it, I
feel like there's got to be a better way.

I think in terms of a "project" - so I've considered trying the project
plugin - I think that will eliminate my use of the NERDTree.  I've also
considered trying out exVim or some of it's plugins to facilitate the idea
of Project-Oriented programming.

Ok - so my "request" is this...

Does anyone have a set up and/or recommendation and/or recommended website
that would help me establish a quicker/better way to work in a
project-centric environment?  Is there a wiki entry on vim.org that I've
missed that spells out this type of workflow a little better?

By the way - I really dig this mailing list - you guys are helpful and
polite - top notch!

Thanks,

Jon
