  1. The ftplugin directory is for Vim plugin scripts that are only used for a
  2. specific filetype.
  3. All files ending in .vim in this directory and subdirectories will be sourced
  4. by Vim when it detects the filetype that matches the name of the file or
  5. subdirectory.
  6. For example, these are all loaded for the "c" filetype:
  7. c.vim
  8. c_extra.vim
  9. c/settings.vim
  10. Note that the "_" in "c_extra.vim" is required to separate the filetype name
  11. from the following arbitrary name.
  12. The filetype plugins are only loaded when the ":filetype plugin" command has
  13. been used.
  14. The default filetype plugin files contain settings that 95% of the users will
  15. want to use. They do not contain personal preferences, like the value of
  16. 'shiftwidth'.
  17. If you want to do additional settings, or overrule the default filetype
  18. plugin, you can create your own plugin file. See ":help ftplugin" in Vim.
