Org mode and Outline mode syntax highlighting for Vim
Org.vim is a very minimal Org mode and Outline mode plugin for Vim providing only syntax highlighting and folding.
This plugin aims to replicate Vim's existing Markdown editing experience on Org mode (and Outline mode) files, rather than trying to be a full featured Org mode plugin—that is what Emacs is for.
Originally created so I would be able to quickly edit and easily read Org mode files in Vim without any of the bells and whistles of the original Emacs implementation. It also allowed me use Orgzly (highly recommended) without worrying about Emacs lock-in.
Note: this project is considered feature complete by the author, so the addition of new features will be unlikely.
Installation
Installation of Org.vim can be performed by using your preferred plugin/package management tool(s). If you don't have a Vim package manager I recommend using Vim 8 packages.
Just run these 2 commands from your shell.
git clone https://github.com/axvr/org.vim ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/org
vim +'helptags ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/org/doc/' +q
Once installed check out the Org.vim manual (run :help org.txt to open it) for
usage information and configuration options.
