Hi everyone,
I am having some trouble with my .vimrc file for the Vim editor. I copied the same file over from my school account on a red-hat linux over to my Ubuntu linux machine. I know I am saving it in the right location (the home directory) because another one will work. Is there something I am doing wrong here? I have included my .vimrc file below. Thank you,
Nick
