RE: Vim on XP

I've been using gvim on windows for awhile not, but just as a vi editor in place of the other text editors.

However this list is doing lots of things I don't understand, so if you do come across those online resources I would appreciate it if you let me know.

Not sure how to get started with the 'fancy' stuff.

Thanks

Subject: Vim on XP

Hi, all.

After starting with computers in '87 with the now Classic Mac OS & going onto OS X in 2000 & Linux in 2005, today I was presented with my very first Windows machine (XP Pro) for a project I'm doing.

The second thing I did after installing Chrome was to install gVim74 & place a highly curtailed `_vimrc` & the directory `vimfiles` from the result of `:echo $HOME' in the appropriate place.

I'm wondering if anybody can point me in the right direction of some good online resources for Vim on Windows so I can get up to speed quickly with regards to plugins, tips & tricks, etc?

Any help appreciated,

Cheers,

Phil...
