========
2013-09-11 12:06:57 +09:00

2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
2013-09-23 00:43:38 +09:00
Somewhere between [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) and
[Vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle), but with faster parallel installer.

2013-09-23 00:43:38 +09:00

### Usage
2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
Download plug.vim and put it in ~/.vim/autoload
```sh
mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload
2013-09-11 12:06:57 +09:00
curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim https://raw.github.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim
2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
```
Edit your .vimrc
```vim
2013-09-16 17:37:09 +09:00
call plug#begin()
2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
Plug 'junegunn/seoul256'
Plug 'junegunn/vim-easy-align'
" Plug 'user/repo', 'branch_or_tag'
2013-09-17 12:35:10 +09:00
" Plug 'git@github.com:junegunn/vim-github-dashboard.git'
2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
" ...
2013-09-16 17:37:09 +09:00
call plug#end()
2013-09-10 23:58:41 +09:00
```
2013-09-23 01:49:34 +09:00
Then `:PlugInstall` to install plugins.
### Plugin directory
By default, plugins are installed in `plugged` directory under the first path in
runtimepath at the point when `plug#begin()` is called. This is usually
2013-09-23 01:51:55 +09:00
`~/.vim/plugged` (or `$HOME/vimfiles/plugged` on Windows) given that you didn't
touch runtimepath before the call. You can explicitly set the location of the
plugins with `plug#begin(path)` call.

### Regarding feature request
You may submit a request for a new feature by [creating an
issue](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug/issues). However, please be minded
that this is an opinionated software and I want to keep the feature set as small
as possible. So I may not agree with you on the necessity of the suggested
feature. If that happens, I suggest the following options.
1. Check out [Vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle) or
[NeoBundle](https://github.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim).
They offer broader feature sets.
2. Create a fork of this project and let it be your own plugin manager.
There's no need for us to have a single canonical branch.
