Then run inside Vim: > :so ~/.vimrc :PluginInstall < If you use Pathogen [3], do this: > cd ~/.vim/bundle git clone https://github.com/plasticboy/vim-markdown.git < To install without Pathogen using the Debian vim-addon-manager [4], do this: > git clone https://github.com/plasticboy/vim-markdown.git cd vim-markdown sudo make install vim-addon-manager install markdown < If you are not using any package manager, download the tarball [5] and do this: > cd ~/.vim tar --strip=1 -zxf vim-markdown-master.tar.gz < =============================================================================== *vim-markdown-options* Options ~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-disable-folding* Disable Folding ~ Add the following line to your '.vimrc' to disable the folding configuration: > let g:vim_markdown_folding_disabled = 1 < This option only controls Vim Markdown specific folding configuration. To enable/disable folding use Vim's standard folding configuration. > set [no]foldenable < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-change-fold-style* Change fold style ~ To fold in a style like python-mode [6], add the following to your '.vimrc': > let g:vim_markdown_folding_style_pythonic = 1 < Level 1 heading which is served as a document title is not folded. 'g:vim_markdown_folding_level' setting is not active with this fold style. To prevent foldtext from being set add the following to your '.vimrc': > let g:vim_markdown_override_foldtext = 0 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-set-header-folding-level* Set header folding level ~ Folding level is a number between 1 and 6. By default, if not specified, it is set to 1. > let g:vim_markdown_folding_level = 6 < Tip: it can be changed on the fly with: > :let g:vim_markdown_folding_level = 1 :edit < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-disable-default-key-mappings* Disable Default Key Mappings ~ Add the following line to your '.vimrc' to disable default key mappings: > let g:vim_markdown_no_default_key_mappings = 1 < You can also map them by yourself with '' mappings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-enable-toc-window-auto-fit* Enable TOC window auto-fit ~ Allow for the TOC window to auto-fit when it's possible for it to shrink. It never increases its default size (half screen), it only shrinks. > let g:vim_markdown_toc_autofit = 1 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-text-emphasis-restriction-to-single-lines* Text emphasis restriction to single-lines ~ By default text emphasis works across multiple lines until a closing token is found. However, it's possible to restrict text emphasis to a single line (ie, for it to be applied a closing token must be found on the same line). To do so: > let g:vim_markdown_emphasis_multiline = 0 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-syntax-concealing* Syntax Concealing ~ Concealing is set for some syntax. For example, conceal '[link text](link url)' as just 'link text'. Also, '_italic_' and '*italic*' will conceal to just _italic_. Similarly '__bold__', '**bold**', '___italic bold___', and '***italic bold***' will conceal to just **bold**, **bold**, **_italic bold_**, and **_italic bold_** respectively. To enable conceal use Vim's standard conceal configuration. > set conceallevel=2 < To disable conceal regardless of 'conceallevel' setting, add the following to your '.vimrc': > let g:vim_markdown_conceal = 0 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-fenced-code-block-languages* Fenced code block languages ~ You can use filetype name as fenced code block languages for syntax highlighting. If you want to use different name from filetype, you can add it in your '.vimrc' like so: > let g:vim_markdown_fenced_languages = ['csharp=cs'] < This will cause the following to be highlighted using the 'cs' filetype syntax. > ```csharp ... ``` < Default is "['c++=cpp', 'viml=vim', 'bash=sh', 'ini=dosini']". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-syntax-extensions* Syntax extensions ~ The following options control which syntax extensions will be turned on. They are off by default. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-latex-math* LaTeX math ~ Used as '$x^2$', '$$x^2$$', escapable as '\$x\$' and '\$\$x\$\$'. > let g:vim_markdown_math = 1 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-yaml-front-matter* YAML Front Matter ~ Highlight YAML front matter as used by Jekyll or Hugo [7]. > let g:vim_markdown_frontmatter = 1 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-toml-front-matter* TOML Front Matter ~ Highlight TOML front matter as used by Hugo [7]. TOML syntax highlight requires vim-toml [8]. > let g:vim_markdown_toml_frontmatter = 1 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-json-front-matter* JSON Front Matter ~ Highlight JSON front matter as used by Hugo [7]. JSON syntax highlight requires vim-json [9]. > let g:vim_markdown_json_frontmatter = 1 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-adjust-new-list-item-indent* Adjust new list item indent ~ You can adjust a new list indent. For example, you insert a single line like below: > * item1 < Then if you type 'o' to insert new line in vim and type '* item2', the result will be: > * item1 * item2 < vim-markdown automatically insert the indent. By default, the number of spaces of indent is 4. If you'd like to change the number as 2, just write: > let g:vim_markdown_new_list_item_indent = 2 < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-do-not-require-.md-extensions-for-markdown-links* Do not require .md extensions for Markdown links ~ If you want to have a link like this '[link text](link-url)' and follow it for editing in vim using the 'ge' command, but have it open the file "link-url.md" instead of the file "link-url", then use this option: > let g:vim_markdown_no_extensions_in_markdown = 1 < This is super useful for GitLab and GitHub wiki repositories. Normal behaviour would be that vim-markup required you to do this '[link text ](link-url.md)', but this is not how the Gitlab and GitHub wiki repositories work. So this option adds some consistency between the two. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *vim-markdown-auto-write-when-following-link* Auto-write when following link ~ If you follow a link like this '[link text](link-url)' using the 'ge' shortcut, this option will automatically save any edits you made before moving you: > let g:vim_markdown_autowrite = 1 < =============================================================================== *vim-markdown-mappings* Mappings ~ The following work on normal and visual modes: *vim-markdown-gx* - 'gx': open the link under the cursor in the same browser as the standard 'gx' command. 'Markdown_OpenUrlUnderCursor' The standard 'gx' is extended by allowing you to put your cursor anywhere inside a link. For example, all the following cursor positions will work: > [Example](http://example.com) ^ ^ ^^ ^ ^ 1 2 34 5 6 ^ ^ ^ 1 2 3 < Known limitation: does not work for links that span multiple lines. *vim-markdown-ge* - 'ge': open the link under the cursor in Vim for editing. Useful for relative markdown links. 'Markdown_EditUrlUnderCursor' The rules for the cursor position are the same as the 'gx' command. *vim-markdown-]]* - ']]': go to next header. 'Markdown_MoveToNextHeader' *vim-markdown-[[* - '[[': go to previous header. Contrast with ']c'. 'Markdown_MoveToPreviousHeader' *vim-markdown-][* - '][': go to next sibling header if any. 'Markdown_MoveToNextSiblingHeader' *vim-markdown-[]* - '[]': go to previous sibling header if any. 'Markdown_MoveToPreviousSiblingHeader' *vim-markdown-]c* - ']c': go to Current header. 'Markdown_MoveToCurHeader' *vim-markdown-]u* - ']u': go to parent header (Up). 'Markdown_MoveToParentHeader' This plugin follows the recommended Vim plugin mapping interface, so to change the map ']u' to 'asdf', add to your '.vimrc': > map asdf Markdown_MoveToParentHeader < To disable a map use: > map Markdown_MoveToParentHeader < =============================================================================== *vim-markdown-commands* Commands ~ The following requires ':filetype plugin on'. *:HeaderDecrease* - ':HeaderDecrease': Decrease level of all headers in buffer: 'h2' to 'h1', 'h3' to 'h2', etc. If range is given, only operate in the range. If an 'h1' would be decreased, abort. For simplicity of implementation, Setex headers are converted to Atx. *:HeaderIncrease* - ':HeaderIncrease': Analogous to ':HeaderDecrease', but increase levels instead. *:SetexToAtx* - ':SetexToAtx': Convert all Setex style headers in buffer to Atx. If a range is given, e.g. hit ':' from visual mode, only operate on the range. *:TableFormat* - ':TableFormat': Format the table under the cursor like this [10]. Requires Tabular [11]. The input table _must_ already have a separator line as the second line of the table. That line only needs to contain the correct pipes '|', nothing else is required. *:Toc* - ':Toc': create a quickfix vertical window navigable table of contents with the headers. Hit '' on a line to jump to the corresponding line of the markdown file. *:Toch* - ':Toch': Same as ':Toc' but in an horizontal window. *:Toct* - ':Toct': Same as ':Toc' but in a new tab. *:Tocv* - ':Tocv': Same as ':Toc' for symmetry with ':Toch' and ':Tocv'. =============================================================================== *vim-markdown-credits* Credits ~ The main contributors of vim-markdown are: - **Ben Williams** (A.K.A. **plasticboy**).
