When I install plugins, I like to keep them organised in folders. For example, I have downloaded plugins that turn vim into a programming IDE. This file contains 16 folders and files which are installed in the ~/.vim directory. Is there a way I can have all of these files and folders stored in ~/.vim/ide_support?
Add plugin directory
plugin system
Unpack the plugin into ~/.vim/ide_support then add the following to your .vimrc.set runtimepath+=~/.vim/ide_supportVim will now look in ~/.vim/ide_support for plugins.This is one of the things that a plugin manager such as pathogen does for you automatically.
