[texhax] Trying to set up VIM-Latex... Troubles with .vimrc

[Diego Acosta]

   Dear friends of TUG,

I am trying to install and use VIM-Latex on a Win XP laptop per these instructions:

http://vim-latex.sourceforge.net/index.php?subject=download&title=Download

Step 1 of 4 was completed very well and the files were extracted correctly.  The second step is what's causing me grief   I can't find a file named .vimrc anywhere but I do find a file called _vimrc which has:

set nocompatible
source $VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim
source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim
behave mswin

set diffexpr=MyDiff()
function MyDiff()
  let opt = '-a --binary '
  if &diffopt =~ 'icase' | let opt = opt . '-i ' | endif
  if &diffopt =~ 'iwhite' | let opt = opt . '-b ' | endif
  let arg1 = v:fname_in
  if arg1 =~ ' ' | let arg1 = '"' . arg1 . '"' | endif
  let arg2 = v:fname_new
  if arg2 =~ ' ' | let  arg2 = '"' . arg2 . '"' | endif
  let arg3 = v:fname_out
  if arg3 =~ ' ' | let arg3 = '"' . arg3 . '"' | endif
  let eq = ''
  if $VIMRUNTIME =~ ' '
    if &sh =~ '\<cmd'
      let cmd = '""' . $VIMRUNTIME . '\diff"'
      let eq = '"'
    else
      let cmd = substitute($VIMRUNTIME, ' ', '" ', '') . '\diff"'
    endif
  else
    let cmd = $VIMRUNTIME . '\diff'
  endif
  silent execute '!' . cmd . ' ' . opt . arg1 . ' ' . arg2 . ' > ' . arg3 . eq
endfunction

Is that the file that you are referring to or should I write a .vimrc file with the following?


filetype plugin on
set shellslash
set grepprg=grep\ -nH\ $*
filetype indent on

Please help me 

Regards,


Diego Acosta


P.S. I have looked at forums, and many other sources...
