Modular configuration using power of pathogen & git

Far more than just a well crafted .vimrc file (though it’s got one of those too), it  makes use of pathogen to have a well organized vim directory. It heavily uses git submodules where possible for all plugins so each plugin can easily and independently be kept up to date.

Functions are the masters of reuse: when you use an advanced feature, you need a yet more advanced feature to abstract over it (think: classes < existential types < universally quantified constraints < unknown). But all you need to abstract over a function is another function.
