sVimrc

  • The sVimrc page is where you can customize sVim settings and css.
  • You can access the page by pressing g v or via the extension settings in Safari.
  • The sVimrc and sVimcss files can be synced via gist.
    • The gist id is found at the end of the url when viewing the gist.
    • Note it does not matter the name of your gist or the file, sVim will just grab the first file from the gist id supplied. I use sVim.rc and sVim.css.
  • For simplicity, strings in sVimrc should be wrapped in ".
  • Save the sVimrc page with command+s.
  • Goto or switch between sVimrc and sVimcss with ctrl+w.
