description
IMPORTANT: don't use vplinst. It is kept here for historical reasons, but there are much better plugin installers out there. Check Vundle (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3458), for instance.

Vplinst stands for "VIM plugin installer" and is an attempt to make an automatic plugin installer for Vim. It installs scripts distributed in various different manners: vba (VimBall), tgz, .vim, .zip. You just configure the scripts you want in the vplinst.conf file, run the script and it will download and install them for you.

This utility consists in awk and sh scripts, that almost match POSIX and may run in any UNIX operating system with /bin/sh and awk.

Fork it on http://github.com/silasdb/vplinst

Please, communicate any problems and bugs you experienced.
 
install details
Just unpack it, cd the directory where the unpacked scripts belong to and run the vplinst.sh script. Configure the scripts you want in the vplinst.conf file. More information in the README.rst file.
