Learn to write plugins and understand settings

I just released a very simple plugin to enhance the status line: https://github.com/millermedeiros/vim-statline

this post is very relevant: http://delvarworld.github.io/blog/2013/03/16/just-use-sublime-text/

I have so much to learn.

This is the way.
This is truly something.

It is better than expected! 🙏
