tplugin is a plugin management tool similar to pathogen. Other than pathogen tplugin expands the 'runtimepath' as needed (e.g. when calling a command or function that is defined in a bundle) in order to have minimal impact on startup time. This plugin helps users to deal with plugins that are distributed via source code repositories. Usually, you would make those plugins available to vim by adding the local copies of those repositories to |runtimepath|. The disadvantage of this approach is that the value of |runtimepath| becomes unnecessarily complex and that the plugins are loaded on startup. tplugin scans those plugins for commands and functions. It then amends the |runtimepath| only if a respective command/function/map is called (similar to the AsNeeded plugin). This helps to keep your |runtimepath| simple and to improve startup time. In order to achieve this goal, plugins are installed in an alternative directory structure where each plugin (consequently referred to as "repo") is installed in a subdirectory. tplugin takes care of modifying 'runtimepath' and of loading the vim script files as necessary. Alternative directory layout:     ROOT/       repo1/         after/         autoload/         doc/         plugin/       repo2/         after/         autoload/         doc/         plugin/       ... Repos can be enabled (i.e. added to 'runtimepath') either explicitly with the |:TPlugin| command or automatically by calling a command, function, or by requesting a filetype plugin/syntax/indent file defined in a repo -- this is done similar to how AsNeeded autoloads files.

install details

Edit the vba file and type: >     :so % See :help vimball for details. If you have difficulties or use vim 7.0, please make sure, you have the current version of vimball (vimscript #1502) installed or update your runtime. Getting started:     1. Add this to your vimrc file:         runtime macros/tplugin.vim         " Only necessary if you use a non-standard root directory         TPluginRoot /home/x/src/repos     2. Install your plugins/repos in the root directory.     3. After restarting vim, type :TPluginScan! Also available as git repository: http://github.com/tomtom/tplugin_vim
