Matt's neovim Setup

Installation

  1. git clone <dot-vim> ~/.config/nvim
  2. Open neovim and run :PaqInstall to install plugins.
  3. Run :TSInstall <languages> to install treesitter parsers for the languages you care about. See :TSModuleInfo for the list of supported languages.
    • NOTE: You may need to install the tree-sitter binary to install languages based on upstream grammar files. See the tree-sitter release page

Overview

I use Chris Simpkins' Hack font on a black background with darkish grey text. If you don't want to go through the effort of installing a custom font, I at least recommend using a monospaced font. Bitstream Vera Mono is a great choice and is present on most systems by default. For a lualine compatible version, see the version of Hack on Nerd Fonts.

I use paq to manage plugins, so :PaqUpdate can be used to keep the plugins configured in init.lua

Probably not so helpful notes

  • expandtab is on, which replaces hard tabs with spaces, because tabs are evil.
  • Similarly, tw is set to 79 and fo will automatically wrap in insert mode
  • clipboard is setup to use the + register. Use it, you will love it. I promise.
  • F9 is setup to toggle folding where available
  • O and o are remapped. They do the same thing as normally except they don't leave you in insert mode.
  • gq is setup to autowrap blocks at 79 characters. For best results, use visual mode to highlight all of someone else's long lines and then hit gq to win.
  • There's a handy ToggleHighlightWSErrors function that you can call that will highlight tabs in this offensive green color and long lines in blinding red. Use judiciously to banish tabs.
    • it also highlights trailing whitespace
    • call ToggleHighlightWSErrors() to use from normal mode
  • There's some extra stuff here to support vimpager
    • Use vimpager, it's much better than the alternatives and allows you to regex search your paged content.
  • When editing markdown, you can use :TableFormat to automatically line up and center tables (brought to you by tabular and vim-markdown)
