Installation instructions are confusing

Open jessebrennan opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

You suggest using Vundle, but then proceed to give instructions for a manual instruction, i.e. using Bundle instead of Plugin, manually copy over files, etc. Or maybe these aren't instructions for using Vundle but then the layout of the docs is confusing.

I tried just doing the regular Vundle install and added Plugin 'gu-fan/riv.vim' to the right spot of my vimrc. The Riv commands showed up in my vimpath but note would do anything. This is why I doubted the install, I'm trying now manually.

I'm using vim 8.0 on ubuntu 18.

Not really sure what was happening, but restarting vim cleared things up. I see now that the instructions make sense, I just wasn't used to having to copy files into .vim in order to install a plugin.

The instructions could be a little more clear though by changing Bundle gu-fan/riv.vim to the more up to date Plugin gu-fan/riv.vim.

Thanks, feel free to close this.
