I'm really interested in other people's setup so could we start a
thread of people sharing their ~/.vimrc file.

Here is mine: <https://github.com/myles/dotfiles/blob/master/vimrc>.

I am mostly an Emacs user, and have quite a lot of stuff in $HOME/.emacs.d/init.el

I use a system for managing Emacs setup called el-get, by a fellow I often conference

with called Dimitri Fontaine. (He also does Postgres and Lisp!)

I have a ~/.vim directory, which has nothing in it.

The vim config file I didn't realize was there and had interesting contents was $HOME/.viminfo,

which seems to have some fascinating history about what things I have edited using vim over

the last several years. If you use vim a lot, I'll bet you'll find neat stuff in .viminfo!

When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the
question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
