Re: Plugin manager with dependencies and selective bundle load

There is a 'func not defined' hook which can be used. Maybe that is
used.
You're right, VAM does not support such yet.
Feel free to use VAM to :InstallAddons only and use tplugin for
activating them.

My understanding of pludins is:

plugin/*.vim: everything the user can customize (settings, interface,
mappings, commansds)

autoload/*: everything else

VAM has an experimental function to "merge" all plugin/* files so that
only one file is sources - but this still assumes that plugins only put
minimal configuration into the plugin files - and the if .. finish line
may be causing trouble easily and such.

Due to commands I personally assume that plugin files should always be
read - you're right, you can replace commansds/ mappings by "fake"
implementations activating a plugin first.
Before you make me spend time on such do profiling and tell me what's
causing most trouble to you.

You're welcome. Its easy to miss a detail if there is so much new stuff.

plugin2 depending on plugin1 and auto activation:
Retry again. This would be a serious bug.

If can't make it work I can invite you to a SSH session so that you can
proof me that its behaving wrong easily.
