DESCRIPTION
================================================================================
C/C++-IDE for Vim/gVim. It is written to considerably speed up writing code in
a consistent style. This is done by inserting complete statements, idioms,
code snippets, templates, and comments. Syntax checking, compiling, running a
program, running indent or code checkers can be done with a keystroke. There
are many additional hints and options which can improve speed and comfort when
writing C/C++. See the help file csupport.txt for more information.
================================================================================
INSTALLATION
================================================================================
(1) LINUX
----------
The subdirectories in the zip archive cvim.zip mirror the directory structure
which is needed below the local installation directory $HOME/.vim/ (find the
value of $HOME with ":echo $HOME" from inside Vim).
(1.0) Save the template files in '$HOME/.vim/c-support/templates/Templates' if
you have changed any of them.
(1.1) Copy the zip archive cvim.zip to $HOME/.vim and run
unzip cvim.zip
If you have already an older version of c-support and you have modified
the template files you may want to save your templates first and suppress
overwriting them with
unzip cvim.zip -x *Templates *.template
(1.2) Loading of plugin files must be enabled. If not use
:filetype plugin on
This is the minimal content of the file '$HOME/.vimrc'. Create one if there
is none or use the files in $HOME/.vim/c-support/rc as a starting point.
(1.3) Set at least some personal details in the file
'$HOME/.vim/c-support/templates/Templates'
Here is the minimal personalization (my settings as an example):
|AUTHOR| = Dr. Fritz Mehner
|AUTHORREF| = fgm
|EMAIL| = mehner@fh-swf.de
|COMPANY| = FH Südwestfalen, Iserlohn
|COPYRIGHT| = Copyright (c) |YEAR|, |AUTHOR|
(Read more about the template system in the plugin documentation)
(1.4) Make the plugin help accessable by typing the following command on the
Vim command line:
:helptags $HOME/.vim/doc/
(1.5) Consider additional settings in the file '$HOME/.vimrc'. The files
customization.vimrc and customization.gvimrc are replacements or extensions
for your .vimrc and .gvimrc. You may want to use parts of them. The files
are documented.
(2) WINDOWS
------------
The subdirectories in the zip archive cvim.zip mirror the directory structure
which is needed below the local installation directory $HOME/vimfiles/ (find
the value of $HOME with ":echo $HOME" from inside Vim).
(2.0) Save the template files in '$HOME/vimfiles/c-support/templates/Templates' if
you have changed any of them.
(2.1) Copy the zip archive cvim.zip to $HOME/vimfiles and run
unzip cvim.zip
If you have already an older version of c-support and you have modified
the template files you may want to save your templates first and suppress
overwriting them with
unzip cvim.zip -x *Templates *.template
(2.2) Loading of plugin files must be enabled. If not use
:filetype plugin on
This is the minimal content of the file '$HOME/_vimrc'. Create one if there
is none or use the files in $HOME/vimfiles/c-support/rc as a starting point.
(2.3) Set at least some personal details in the file
'$HOME/vimfiles/c-support/templates/Templates'
Here is the minimal personalization (my settings as an example):
|AUTHOR| = Dr. Fritz Mehner
|AUTHORREF| = fgm
|EMAIL| = mehner@fh-swf.de
|COMPANY| = FH Südwestfalen, Iserlohn
|COPYRIGHT| = Copyright (c) |YEAR|, |AUTHOR|
(Read more about the template system in the plugin documentation)
(2.4) Make the plugin help accessable by typing the following command on the
Vim command line:
:helptags $HOME\vimfiles\doc\
(2.5) Consider additional settings in the file '$HOME/_vimrc'. The files
customization.vimrc and customization.gvimrc are replacements or extensions
for your _vimrc and _gvimrc. You may want to use parts of them. The files
are documented.
There are a lot of features and options which can be used and influenced:
* use of template files and tags
* surround marked blocks with statements
* using and managing personal code snippets
* generate/remove multiline comments
* picking up prototypes
* C/C++ dictionaries for keyword completion
* (re)moving the root menu
Look at csupport help with
:help csupport
or use the 'help' item in the root menu of this plug-in.

CREDITS
================================================================================
Most of the people who have contributed ideas, patches, and bug reports, is
thanked in the file ChangeLog.
I would like to especially thank my son Wolfgang Mehner, who has repeatedly
proposed improvements and introduced new ideas.
Some ideas are taken from the following documents:
1. Recommended C Style and Coding Standards (Indian Hill Style Guide)
www.doc.ic.ac.uk/lab/secondyear/cstyle/cstyle.html
2. Programming in C++, Ellemtel Telecommunication Systems Laboratories
www.it.bton.ac.uk/burks/burks/language/cpp/cppstyle/ellhome.htm
3. C++ Coding Standard, Todd Hoff
www.possibility.com/Cpp/CppCodingStandard.html
The splint error format is taken from the file splint.vim (Vim standard
distribution).
------------------
... finally
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832), the greatest of the German poets,
about LINUX, Vim/gVim and other great tools (Ok, almost.) :
Ein Mann, der recht zu wirken denkt, Who on efficient work is bent,
Muß auf das beste Werkzeug halten. Must choose the fittest instrument.
