NeoVim

NeoVim is a new super configurable version of the VIM editor. 
 I've been learning to configure and customise it for my own use. I used the following tutorials:

 I also really like these plugins: 
 Powerline 
 Lualine adds a status bar at the bottom of VIM that shows you what's going on - its pretty neat. You need to install powerline fonts on the system. On Debian-based systems you can run apt-get install fonts-powerline
