# Shaun's `tmux` Dotfiles
## Location
The configuration file needs to be present at this location, `~/.vimrc`. So, we can use the following command to softlink/symlink,
```bash
ln -s <location of cloned dotfiles .vimrc file> ~/.vimrc
# e.g.
# ln -s ~/dotfiles/vim/.vimrc ~/.vimrc
```
The configuration file also uses a directory to place scripts and files which needs to be present at this location, `~/.vim`. So, we can use the following command to softlink/symlink,
```bash
ln -s <location of cloned dotfiles .vim directory> ~/.vim
# e.g.
# ln -s ~/dotfiles/vim/.vim ~/.vim
```
## Install Plugin Manager (`Vundle`)
We will use `vundle` as our plugin manager, but it cannot install itself. So we have to clone it into the proper place.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
```
## Install Plugins
Once the tmux symlink is created, we can install all plugins. This is done from within a vim window.
```bash
vim
:PluginInstall
# Or this from the shell ..
# vim +PluginInstall +qall
```
