Strange errors about vim HOT 7 CLOSED

What is the commit hash of your dracula installation?

from vim.

This is line 57, which is being reported as an error by your vim distribution.

This is absolutely 100% valid vim syntax. So my guess is that your init scripts have something fishy going on.

I just spent a freaking hour on this. Typical case of PICNIC.

If you right click the dracula.vim and saveas, you save a html file from github (in hindsight, duhhhh) which vim cannot read.

Making sure the content of the dracula.vim file is actually a vim color scheme fixes the problem.

Yikes! Yeah, I'd definitely suggest using a plugin manager to manage your plugins. I use vim-plug, but there are several others out there as well that'll get the job done.

To be really honest I'm not a huge fan of vim plugins (ok I use vscode as my main ide and vim as a lightweight text editor). My vimrc is like 10 lines or so. Shell scripts and git take care of most of the syncing.

Also see this talk about what's possible without plugins.

with vim's pack system, you don't need a plugin manager. just something that can put files in the directories (which are schemed perfectly for a git clone)

Marking this for closure, since it looks like the issue was resolved.
