Finally after several tries and start-overs I believe I've got my entire .vim file onto my iPad by accessing Dropbox from the Files app on the iPad. Also copied over my vimwiki folder.

Now I just have to get it all working. For that I'll have to relearn vim. I got so comfortable with my MacVim setup on my MacBook that I've altogether forgotten how i got it. With time. And a lot of hand-holding from folks here. FWIW I'm not a programmer. Just a writer.

So thanks for the help. Would not have gotten even this far without it.
