README for c.vim (Version 5.7) / April 28 2009
===============================================

* CREDITS

================================================================================
DESCRIPTION
================================================================================
C/C++-IDE for Vim/gVim. It is written to considerably speed up writing code in
a consistent style. This is done by inserting complete statements, idioms,
code snippets, templates, and comments. Syntax checking, compiling, running a
program, running indent or code checkers can be done with a keystroke. There
are many additional hints and options which can improve speed and comfort when
writing C/C++. See the help file csupport.txt for more information.

================================================================================
INSTALLATION
================================================================================
The subdirectories in the zip archive cvim.zip mirror the directory structure
which is needed below the local installation directory $HOME/.vim/ for
LINUX/UNIX ($VIM/vimfiles/ for Windows; find the value of $VIM with ":echo
$VIM" from inside Vim).

(0) Save the template files in '$HOME/.vim/c-support/templates/Templates' if
you have changed any of them.

(1) Copy the zip archive cvim.zip to $HOME/.vim and run

unzip cvim.zip

If you have already an older version of cvim and you have modified the
template files you may want to save your templates first or copy the files
from the archive by hand.

(2) Loading of plugin files must be enabled. If not use

:filetype plugin on

This is the minimal content of the file '$HOME/.vimrc'. Create one if there
is none.

(3) Set at least some personal details in the file
'$HOME/.vim/c-support/templates/Templates'
(file '$VIM\c-support/templates/Templates' under Windows). Here is the
minimal personalization (my settings as an example):

|AUTHOR| = Dr. Fritz Mehner
|AUTHORREF| = fgm
|EMAIL| = [email protected]
|COMPANY| = FH Südwestfalen, Iserlohn
|COPYRIGHT| = Copyright (c) |YEAR|, |AUTHOR|

(Read more about the template system in the plugin documentation)

(4) Consider additional settings in the file '$HOME/.vimrc'.
The files customization.vimrc and customization.gvimrc are replacements or
extensions for your .vimrc and .gvimrc ( _vimrc and _gvimrc under Windows).
You may want to use parts of them. The files are documented.

There are a lot of features and options which can be used and influenced:

* use of template files and tags
* surround marked blocks with statements
* using and managing personal code snippets
* generate/remove multiline comments
* picking up prototypes
* C/C++ dictionaries for keyword completion
* (re)moving the root menu

Restart gVim/Vim generate the help tags

:helptags ~/.vim/doc

and look at csupport help with

:help csupport

or use the 'help' item in the root menu of this plug-in.

... finally

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832), the greatest of the German poets,
about LINUX, Vim/gVim and other great tools (Ok, almost.) :

Ein Mann, der recht zu wirken denkt, Who on efficient work is bent,
Muß auf das beste Werkzeug halten. Must choose the fittest instrument.
