Thanks I have it installed, and added the rails plugin, is there any other plugins I should install? I pulled the latest rails plugin from Github. I tried to open my previous rails project and it still wont open my project in VIM, I think its me. I just went to file open went to the directory where my rails project is located,and could not open the project folder into my VIM. I can't wait to get the basics down with VIM =) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
