使用Pathogen vim安装Snipmate

Question

I attempted to install Snipmate in vim via Pathogen, by:

cd ~/Dropbox/vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate
cd vim-snipmate
git clone https://github.com/honza/vim-snippets.git

(My vim repository is in Dropbox, with my ~/.vimrc reading:

set runtimepath+=~/Dropbox/vim
source ~/Dropbox/vim/vimrc.vim

)

However nothing happens when I press tab. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here? Based on other blogs/questions, I have already tried moving the snippets directory to ~/.vim/ and other locations, but to no avail. I also have "filetype plugin on". So I'm pretty stumped. Am I being stupid here?

Thanks!

SnipMate makes use of the after directory to define its mappings (to ensure that no other plugin overrides them). Therefore, you need to add that directory hierarchy to 'runtimepath' , too:

set runtimepath+=~/Dropbox/vim,~/Dropbox/vim/after
