NeoBundle 'zah/nimrod-vim'

… 然后在Vim中运行以下命令:

:source %
:NeoBundleInstall

使用VimPlug管理器安装

… 然后在Vim中运行以下命令:

:source %
:PlugInstall

使用Pathogen管理器安装

在终端中运行以下命令:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/zah/nim.vim

Ⅳ. 文档说明

# Nim language support for Vim

This provides Nim language support for Vim:

• Syntax highlighting
• Auto-indent
• Build/jump to errors within Vim
• Project navigation and Jump to Definition (cgats or compiler-assisted
  idetools).

The source of this script comes mainly from
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2632, which comes from a
modified python.vim (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=790).

Installation

Installing nim.vim is easy but first you need to have either pathogen plugin or vundle

1. If you already have one working then skip to the final step.
   It is also recommened that you use the syntastic plugin for best results.

Pathogen

Step 1: Install pathogen.vim

First I'll show you how to install tpope's
pathogen.vim so that it's easy to
install nimrod.vim. Do this in your Terminal so that you get the
pathogen.vim file and the directories it needs:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle; \
curl -so ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim \
    https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/master/autoload/pathogen.vim

Next you need to add this to your ~/.vimrc:

call pathogen#infect()

Step 2: Install nimrod.vim as a pathogen bundle

You now have pathogen installed and can put nimrod.vim into ~/.vim/bundle
like this:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/zah/nim.vim.git

You may also want to install synastic by calling

git clone https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic.git

Vundle

Vundle is a more automatic way to install vim plugins that works by cloning
the git reposotory.

Step 1: Install Vundle

Add the vundle script to your vim:

git clone https://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git ~/.vim/bundle/vundle

Modify your ~/.vimrc to get vundle running, lightly adapted from Vundle's readme

set nocompatible              " be iMproved, required
filetype off                  " required

" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vundle/
call vundle#rc()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install bundles
"let path = '~/some/path/here'
"call vundle#rc(path)

" let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Bundle 'gmarik/vundle'

filetype plugin indent on     " required

Step 2: Install nim.vim

On the line after Bundle 'gmarik/vundle', add Bundle 'zah/nim.vim'. You may also want
to add Bundle 'scrooloose/syntastic'. Save ~/.vimrc and restart vim. Execute :BundleInstall
and wait for nim.vim to be installed.

Final Step

Next you need to add this to your ~/.vimrc:

fun! JumpToDef()
  if exists("*GotoDefinition_" . &filetype)
    call GotoDefinition_{&filetype}()
  else
    exe "norm! \<C-]>"
  endif
endf

" Jump to tag
nn <M-g> :call JumpToDef()<cr>
ino <M-g> <esc>:call JumpToDef()<cr>i

The JumpToDef function hooks the nim.vim plugin to invoke the nim
compiler with the appropriate idetools command. Pressing meta+g will then jump
to the definition of the word your cursor is on. This uses the nim compiler
instead of ctags, so it works on any nimrod file which is compilable without
requiring you to maintain a database file.

Other recomended Vim plugins

If something goes wrong

Since you are using vim, on source code which might have syntax problems,
invoking an external tool which may have its own share of bugs, sometimes stuff
just doesn't work as expected. In these situations if you want to debug the
issue you can type :e log://nim and a buffer will open with the log of
the plugin's invocations and nim's idetool answers.

This can give you a hint of where the problem is and allow you to easily
reproduce on the commandline the idetool parameters the vim plugin is
generating so you can prepare a test case for either this plugin or the nimrod
compiler.
