Some features include:

• nice theme for gui and terminal with 16 colors. (ir_black and xterm16)
• incremental Search that ignore case by default
• Swap and backup out of your way

To install: You need to install gnome-vim. If you are using Ubuntu you can run:

sudo apt-get install gnome-vim

then add the config files:

git clone git://github.com/TheNaoX/Vim-for-Rails.git ~/.vim

cd ~/.vim

Keyboard Layout

I use english keyboard layout since is the most efficient layout for development. Also I use the Caps Lock key as control key.

Wish List

Things i want to include, build, improve, etc

• Git grep inside vim
• mvim should open a new tab and pwd should be set to the current file
• running 'gvim' or 'gvim .' should open the NERDTREE by default and an empty window on the right

Enjoy!

And don't forget this!!

This Vim for Rails config files, are forked from Federico Ramallo's github account, so you can follow him, and get some awsome and usefull stuff... :)
