pri[VI]teer - vim + ctags config

[rachitnigam]

From the heretical lands where the church of emacs does not exist, I bring to you, VIM:

• Significantly enhance vim highlighting support for .arr files. Automatic detection for .arr files.
• Code snippets insertion for common code blocks.
• ctags support for jumping to function / type definitions and imports.

I don't know of any of us are capable of reviewing this particular PR for you... 😎

[rachitnigam]

@blerner Fixed the issues you pointed out.

Curious what the addition of the two comment lines (the only change) to indent/pyret.vim is for. It seems to merely identify the original location of the file as itself; why? (And none of the other files have this kind of self-reference.)

[rachitnigam]

@ds26gte that's because I had a separate repo where I was pushing all this code: https://github.com/rachitnigam/pyret-lang.vim

Keeping it in a separate repo helps with vim plugin managers that can directly update the plugin.

I didn't think this repo would want that repo as a submoodule so I moved the latest code here.

[ds26gte]

Ah. Sounds good. And since you seem to be way more versed in VimL than I, please do feel free to improve indent/pyret.vim at your convenience: it was a very naive effort on my part and isn't comprehensive.

I've had this on for a week now. Is there any reason it could cause searching to become SLOW? Like 10-20 seconds lag when I press enter after a search like /<<<<<?

[rachitnigam]

I haven't noticed a slowdown compared to JS Files of similar sizes. It's pretty lightweight for a syntax highlughter (most of it is just color coding keywords)

[jpolitz]

I still see extreme slowdowns with this in terminal vim on OSX with iterm2, bad enough that I can't navigate around files over a few 100s of lines reasonably. Interestingly, the same doesn't happen in GUI mode Macvim.

[rachitnigam]

That's curious. I haven't had problems with the newest neovim and vim versions either.
