Simple vim configuration

Users will only affect their own (user) operations in the configuration file of vim

root has its own vim configuration file, which will only affect itself (root)

Summary: only affects myself

---

Location of configuration file:

• Under the directory /etc/, there is a file named vimrc, which is the public vim configuration file in the system and is valid for all users.
• In each user's home directory, they can create their own private configuration file named: ".vimrc"
• For example, in the /root directory, a .vimrc file usually already exists. If it does not exist, it will be created
• Switch the user to be yourself and execute su, enter your own main working directory, and execute cd ~
• Open the .vimrc file in your own directory and execute vim .vimrc

Note: To create a .vimrc file in your own working directory (~)

The most basic vim configuration is written in the .vimrc file. To configure vim, you only need to add content to the .vimrc file

---

Common configuration options

Just write the corresponding content in the .vimrc file:

Example:

• Set syntax highlighting: syntax on
• Display line number: set nu
• Set the number of indent spaces to 4: set shiftwidth=4

---

Auto configure vim:

Enter the following command directly

curl -sLf https://gitee.com/HGtz2222/VimForCpp/raw/master/install.sh -o ./install.sh&& bash ./install.sh

Then follow the prompts to enter the root password, then wait for the installation configuration, and finally manually execute source ~/.bashrc.After the configuration is complete, functions such as auto-completion, line number display, and auto-indentation are available

• Modify the content of the file: vim /etc/suduers
• Scroll down to the specific location, in insert mode, add the user to the trust list according to the format
