Using the addons ================ The addons shipped by the "vim-scripts" package are *not* enabled per default, you have to copy, or better link, them in a directory which is in the Vim runtimepath (see :help 'runtimepath' in Vim) in order to use them. All the shipped addons however are registered in the Vim addon registry, therefore you can install the "vim-addon-manager" package and use it to manage enabling and disabling of addons. For example, after having installed "vim-addon-manager", you can (as a user) enable the "gnupg" addon by executing: vim-addons install gnupg If you (as a system administrator) want to do the same in a system-wide manner, so that all the users can benefit of the addon for free, you can do so executing: vim-addons --system-wide install gnupg Refer to the documentation of vim-addons for more info. Shipped addons -------------- You can obtain the list of the shipped addons, together with their description, directly from the Vim addon registry entry for vim-scripts (/usr/share/vim/registry/vim-scripts.yaml). For a quick listing of pairs addon name / addon description try: egrep '^(addon|description):' /usr/share/vim/registry/vim-scripts.yaml | sed "1~2i\ " -- Stefano Zacchiroli Sun, 04 Feb 2007 19:04:45 +0100 dtd2vim ======= dtd2vim generate vim XML data file from DTDs for the new DTD-base omni completion for XML files, see :help ft-xml-omni for more information.
