description
This plugin tweaks the behaviour of the 'cursorline' and 'cursorcolumn' options to enable them only in the current window, when not in insert mode, and/or when Vim has focus.

In its default configuration, it essentially makes 'cursorline' and 'cursorcolumn' follow the cursor around in normal mode as much as possible.  It uses each window's global value of both options as its default, so setting each option in your |vimrc| before the plugin loads should do the trick.
