It is not critical, but I'd like to test my understanding of your recommendations regarding git. You recommend that I not install it, for now I take it, because if it were installed VAM would in some instances install less-than-stable releases of plugins? > Try to do the following: > mkdir ~/.vam > cd ~/.vam > wget http://www.vim.org/scripts/download_script.php?src_id=13669 \ > -Ovim-addon-manager-0.4.3.zip > mkdir vim-addon-manager > cd vim-addon-manager > unzip ../vim-addon-manager-0.4.3.zip > rm ../vim-addon-manager-0.4.3.zip > echo 'let g:vim_addon_manager={}' >> ~/.vimrc > echo 'let g:vim_addon_manager.plugin_root_dir=expand("~/.vam")' >> ~/.vimrc > then install any plugin (run something like > :ActivateAddons VimOutliner > in vim). And thanks especially for this. I'm taking a sabbatical on deciding between the vimball approach and VAM. If when I come back to it I go for VAM, this will be the way I will do it.
