A. Vim Registry Entry Examples

Example A-1. vim-runtime.yaml: entry for the matchit plugin

The vim-runtime package itself ships an addon: the matchit plugin. It is rather standard as it ships its content under /usr/share/vim/addons and has no way to be prevented from being loaded. The content of /usr/share/vim/registry/vim-runtime.yaml follows.

addon: matchit
description: extended matching with "%" (e.g. if ... then ... else)
files:
  - plugin/matchit.vim
  - doc/matchit.txt

Example A-2. vim-scripts.yaml: entries for the Vim scripts addon suite

The vim-scripts package ships a suite of several addons, for each shipped addon an entry for the addon registry is provided. Since the shipped addons are not installed in the default addon directories the basedir field should be specified. Several addons provide a way for being blacklisted, for example the alternatve addon can be disabled by adding the line let loaded_alternateFile = 1 somewhere in ~/.vimrc. (Part of) the content of /usr/share/vim/registry/vim-scripts.yaml follows.

addon: alternate
