+Plugins
+=======
+
+Plugins are installed via 'pathogen', a vim package manager:
+
+    mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle; \
+    curl -Sso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim \
+        https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/master/autoload/pathogen.vim
+
+Add this to your `.vimrc`:
+
+    execute pathogen#infect()
+
+Now **Vim** loads all plugins from `.vim/bundle`. Install plugins:
+
+    cd ~/.vim/bundle
+    git clone git://github.com/vim-ruby/vim-ruby.git
+    git clone git://github.com/msanders/snipmate.vim.git
+    git clone git://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree.git
+    git clone git://github.com/Raimondi/delimitMate.git
+    git clone git://github.com/jcf/vim-latex.git
+    git clone git://github.com/ervandew/supertab.git
+
+You can install the plugins without git by downloading and expanding them to `~/.vim/bundle`.

 LaTeX is a system for setting characters ('types'). Actually, it is a wrapper of macros around TeX, [created by Donald Knuth](http://www.tug.org/whatis.html). LaTeX is most widely used In technical writing, especially mathematics, physics, and computer science, because it can typeset mathematical formulae beautifully.
