This repository contains my gVim configuration process for a new Windows computer, it is based on my own work flow as a web developer (in PHP, JavaScript, HTML, CSS) and it includes:
- my gvimrc file
- vimfiles directory containing various customization files including my own theme, snippets, syntax highlighting, etc.
- script to add Vim Renamer to Windows Explorer context menu
- script to remap CapsLock to Ctrl/Esc
- script to replace the Vim icon
- the font of my choice
