一. Emacs or vim?
We won't say more about the two major editors, vim and emacs. Each has its own merits and is worth learning. Maybe by integrating into them, we can experience their uniqueness. It is easy to integrate them, but why do we rarely use them? This may be the learning curve of the two of them, which is really hard to peck. Most people have the heart to learn, but it is difficult to stick to them. Let's take a look at their learning curve. (please allow me to steal a picture)

五. mac of vim
In mac, we choose to install macVim, do not use the original vim of mac, install macVim, refer to the article .
⚠️Note
1. After installing macVim with homebrew, it may be automatically added to the environment variables. Refer to the establishment of soft connections mentioned in the article. I think the author's intention is to vimdirectly call macvim.app when using commands in the terminal , You can still use the original vim without configuration, and the two do not interfere with each other, that is, the vimcommand still calls the original vim, and the mvimcommand calls macvim.
2. After the installation is complete, you may need to configure various plugins or theme styles for macvim. Here we use a relatively complete and open source configuration repository on github for convenience. For .vim_runtimeinstallation configuration, refer to the api of .vim_runtime
3. .vim_runtimeAfter installation, install After it takes effect, it will return to the original vim theme style (solarized color matching, the original configuration can refer to my personal customization – mac configuration chapter ) has changed, not the color we like, because the installation .vim_runtimewill rewrite .vimrcthe file, the original The configuration is overwritten, so the style vim theme style will change. .vimrcSo rewrite the style that was originally configured in to your own configuration file. If ～/.vim_runtime/my_configs.vimthere is no such file, create one. .vim_runtimeBy .vimrcreading the my_configs.vimconfiguration file, it will take effect again.
4. Since then, macvim has been installed, and we can enjoy it to the fullest.
