This is a simple plugin for Vim that will allow you to have a set of templates for certain file types. It is useful to add boilerplate code like guards in C/C++ headers, or license disclaimers.
The easiest way to install the plugin is to install it as a bundle,such as vundle,vim-plug.
important: If you use Fish__ as your shell, you will need to add
set shell=/bin/sh to your ~/.vimrc — the plugin relies on the
setting pointing to a Bourne-compatible shell.
The documentation can be browsed directly in Vim::
:help template.txt
Alternatively, you can also read it in your browser.
In order to update the plugin, go to its bundle directory and use Git to update it:
-
cd ~/.vim/bundle/vim-template -
git pull
Use the :BundleUpdate command provided by Vundle, for example invoking
Vim like this::
% vim +BundleUpdate
