Grzegorz Adam Hankiewicz aa10e421b2 Fixes the column position when invoking idetools. 
Vim starts counting columns from 1 but the nimrod idetools command
starts from zero. This can be verified writing a call to the quit() proc
with a two level identation and trying to invoke idetools on the
whitespace before the word.

Nimrod language support for Vim

This provides Nimrod language support for Vim:

  • Syntax highlighting
  • Auto-indent
  • Build/jump to errors within Vim
  • Project navigation and Jump to Definition (cgats or compiler-assisted idetools).

The source of this script comes mainly from http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2632, which comes from a modified python.vim (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=790).

Installation

Installing nimrod.vim is easy but first you need to have the pathogen plugin installed. If you already have pathogen working then skip Step 1 and go to Step 2.

Step 1: Install pathogen.vim

First I'll show you how to install tpope's pathogen.vim so that it's easy to install nimrod.vim. Do this in your Terminal so that you get the pathogen.vim file and the directories it needs:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle; \
curl -so ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim \
    https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/master/autoload/pathogen.vim

Next you need to add this to your ~/.vimrc:

call pathogen#infect()

Step 2: Install nimrod.vim as a pathogen bundle

You now have pathogen installed and can put nimrod.vim into ~/.vim/bundle like this:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/zah/nimrod.vim.git

Next you need to add this to your ~/.vimrc:

fun! JumpToDef()
  if exists("*GotoDefinition_" . &filetype)
    call GotoDefinition_{&filetype}()
  else
    exe "norm! \<C-]>"
  endif
endf

" Jump to tag
nn <M-g> :call JumpToDef()<cr>
ino <M-g> <esc>:call JumpToDef()<cr>i

The JumpToDef function hooks the nimrod.vim plugin to invoke the nimrod compiler with the appropriate idetools command. Pressing meta+g will then jump to the definition of the word your cursor is on. This uses the nimrod compiler instead of ctags, so it works on any nimrod file which is compilable without requiring you to maintain a database file.
