In poking around themes and schemes and stuff, I see vo_base.vim in
almost every ~/.vim sub directory. That CAN'T be right! Is there actually more than one (and I'm using the Bill Powell version) and where should it (they) go ? Noel offered a naming convention change, is vo_base_syntax.vim a better name (presuming that's where it goes) ? djp _______________________________________________ VimOutliner mailing list [hidden email] http://www.lists.vimoutliner.org/mailman/listinfo |
David,
I have looked into individual names but vim doesn't work that way. Vim expects all files (syntax, functions, indentation, etc.) to have the same name. They are located in different directories based on their contents and function. So if a .c file is loaded, the c syntax file is loaded from syntax/c.vim, indentation is loaded from indent/c.vim, filetype is loaded from ftplugin/c.vim, etc. It's a vim thing.

One vitally important thing to remember -- we have a very strict naming convention that every VimOutliner file begin with vo_ (vee oh underscore). That must always be true, or else uninstall becomes very problematic, as does troubleshooting. This naming convention was hammered out when we transitioned from the single tree VO to the Vim Plugin VO, so as to keep the uninstall and troubleshooting ease of the single tree VO.

Alright I can deal with that, but riddle me this; what of the whole raft of files in /usr/share/vim/ as opposed to ~/.vim/ ? They are in play, too, aren't they (with their various vo_base.vim files) in total, I seem to have about nine of them! must.. simplify.. djp _______________________________________________ VimOutliner mailing list [hidden email] http://www.lists.vimoutliner.org/mailman/listinfo |

The standard install from the VimOutliner project puts all the stuff in the ~/.vim tree, the ~/.vimoutliner tree, ~/.vimrc and ~/.vimoutlinerrc. If you installed using a package, all bets are off.
