/home/rleal/.vim/vimrc

This Vim configuration is meant to make Vim feel more like an IDE than a simple console-based text editor. It's a fork from https://github.com/tlhunter/vimrc. I've added Vundle support and refresh some Plugins to make more an IDE PHP like.

Installation

Run these commands to get this Vim configuration working on your OS X or Linux machine:

cd ~
git clone --recursive git://github.com/rleal/vimrc.git .vim
ln -s ~/.vim/vimrc ~/.vimrc
vim +PluginInstall +qall

NOTE: If you have this not found error of YouCompleteMe:

ycm_client_support.[so|pyd|dll] and ycm_core.[so|pyd|dll] not detected; you need to compile YCM before using it. Read the docs!

execute:

~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/install.sh

Generate tags for autocompletion. Change to project directory and execute:

~/.vim/generate-php-tags.sh

The tags file will refresh every time yoy save a file (auto-tag plugin)
