Plugins

Vim has a large number of plugins available. There are plugins for almost everything: for different filetypes, color schemes, new commands or new features. Vem is compatible with most of them. The only plugins that may encounter an incompatibility are those that remap keys that are already mapped by Vem.

Most well written plugins take a lot of care to not to interfere with key mappings that the user may have defined. That's why most of them start their key mappings using the <leader> key (by default backslash \ both in Vim and Vem). If a plugin defines key mappings starting with <leader>, it should work in Vem as it does in Vim. However, some plugins don't follow this best practice. In those cases, they may override a key mapping set up by Vem and then, some Vem actions can make some actions to get altered or, directly, unreachable.
