This is a simple plug-in for Vim (and NeoVim) allowing to bind Vim's builtin keyword lookup capabilities to an external program, namely Zeal (on GNU Linux) and Dash (on OSX).
The easiest way to install the plugin is to install it as a bundle. For example, using Pathogen:
-
Get and install pathogen.vim. You can skip this step if you already have it installed.
-
cd ~/.vim/bundle
-
git clone git://github.com/artbit/vim-zealdash.git
Bundle installs are known to work fine also when using Vundle. Other bundle managers are expected to work as well.
set shell=/bin/sh
to your ~/.vimrc
— the plugin relies on the
setting pointing to a Bourne-compatible shell.
The documentation can be browsed directly in Vim::
:help zealdash.txt
Alternatively, you can also read it in your browser
In order to update the plugin, go to its bundle directory and use Git to update it:
-
cd ~/.vim/bundle/vim-zealdash
-
git pull
Use the :BundleUpdate
command provided by Vundle, for example invoking
Vim like this:
$ vim +BundleUpdate
