Getting Started

Installation

There are 2 ways to do this

I recommend installing <a href="https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen">pathogen.vim</a> and then adding a git submodule for your plugin:

$ cd ~/.vim
$ git submodule add git@github.com:dhruvasagar/vim-markify.git bundle/markify

Copy plugin/todo-mode.vim, doc/todo-mode.txt to respective ~/.vim/plugin and ~/.vim/doc under UNIX or vimfiles/plugin/ and vimfiles/doc under WINDOWS and restart VIM

Usage

When you have g:markify_autocmd = 1 (default), then markify is run on QuickFixCmdPost event and marks the lines with signs automatically.

Markify can distinguish between errors, warnings & info messages and uses different signs for each. By default it uses '>>' to display in the signcolumn, however this can be changed.

If you don't wish to have markify work all the time, you can set g:markify_autocmd = 0 in your $VIMRC. You can call :Markify to process the current location list or quickfix list ( location lists are given preference ) and add the signs. You can call :MarkifyClear to clear the signs set by Markify and you can also use :MarkifyToggle to toggle the same.

Check :h markify for more details.
