[LINUX] Introducing Neovim-Qt, a graphical VIM editor

An orthodox evolution of VIM, a great editor, named Neovim-Qt. It seems to be a modern next-generation graphical Vim, and I heard that it is the No. 1 editor. There is no reason not to use it anyway, so I decided to switch without knowing what was different.

Installation

sudo apt install neovim-qt

Setting

init.vim

neovim doesn't seem to have a config file .vimrc. It seems to read from ~ / .config / nvim / init.vim, and I created a .vimrc symbolic link.

Create a symbolic link

ln -s ~/.vimrc ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

Font change

~/.config/nvim/ginit.vim

Guifont DejaVu Sans Mono:h15

Make the plugin available

I'm using Vim Plug, so I'll get the Neovim version of Vim Plug with curl.

curl -fLo ~/.local/share/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \

Summary

Being able to handle NERDTree as if it were a file manager is the appeal of Gvim in general.
