Haven’t been here in a good while. Got comfortable with my Vim setup and didn't 
need so much help. (I’m a writer, not a programmer.) Then retired and have not 
been using Vim much.

I was very surprised to see this. I tried the only Vim app available for iPad 
around the time I got my first iPad. I quickly abandoned it. On reading the 
above I checked out the iVim version in the App Store, saw uniform high praise 
in the comments, and installed it. It's gonna take me awhile to refresh my Vim 
competency—such as it was, though adequate for my needs—but I’m glad to have 
access to it again.

I understand it’s not possible to install Vim plugins under iOS. Disappoints 
me, as I made  use of several in my configuration. Is it even possible to set 
up a .vimrc?

Would appreciate hearing about others experiences with Vim on the iPad.
