What's in your .vimrc file?
Inspired by some of the comments in our Your Vim Tips! (in particular those by Mafinar and Hallski) …what’s in your .vimrc?
*If you’re using something like Janus, you’ll probably want to look in .gvimrc.after

I haven’t touched it for like forever. Not a good example either, but it is well attuned to my muscle memory.

This is a plugin found after stumbling over the feature in Doom Emacs and wanted to have the same functionality in Vim.
It gives a visual feedback to what you just yanked so that you can verify that you got it correctly.

Here’s mine:
color Elixify
set guifont=Menlo:h12
set linespace=2
let g:NERDTreeWinPos = "right"
autocmd BufWinEnter * NERDTreeMirror
set guioptions-=T " Removes top toolbar
set guioptions-=r " Removes right hand scroll bar
set go-=L " Removes left hand scroll bar
autocmd User Rails let b:surround_{char2nr('-')} = "<% \r %>" " displays <% %> correctly
set cpoptions+=$ " puts a $ marker for the end of words/lines in cw/c$ commands
let mapleader="," " Change mapleader from \ to ,
"autocmd BufWritePre *.rb :%s/\s\+$//e
autocmd BufWritePre * :%s/\s\+$//e
set shortmess+=A " removes swap file warnings
"Better window navigation
