[Introduction]

The Trinity plugin manages Source Explorer, Taglist and NERD Tree, and build them as a great IDE.

[Features]

1\ Automatic Display of Declarations in the Context Window on the bottom in the (G)VIM window using the script named 'Source Explorer(srcexpl.vim)' :
https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2179

2\ Symbol Windows For Each File on the left in the (G)VIM window (G)VIM using the script named 'taglist.vim':
https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=273

3\ Quick Access to All Files on the right in the (G)VIM window using the script named 'The NERD tree(NERD_tree.vim)':
https://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1658

4\ You can change various options of each plugin in trinity.vim according to you request.

[Declaration]

In order to build such an IDE that implement the main functions(function list, definition and context explorer, file brower), I had modified the source code of 'NERD_tree.zip 2.13.0'. You would note the comments which begin with 'Wenlong Che add/delete for trinity.vim' in the NERD_tree.vim.
 
install details
1\ Unzip the 'Trinity-2.2.zip', and copy all the script files into to the plugin directory of Vimfiles, such as ~/.vim/plugin/

2\ Add the followings in your .vimrc or _vimrc and change them by yourself

" Open and close all the three plugins on the same time
nmap <F8>   :TrinityToggleAll<CR>

" Open and close the srcexpl.vim separately

" Open and close the taglist.vim separately
