UPDATE:
Go 1.4 Release Notes
Miscellany
The standard repository’s top-level misc directory used to contain Go
support for editors and IDEs: plugins, initialization
scripts and so on. Maintaining these was becoming time-consuming and
needed external help because many of the editors listed were not used
by members of the core team. It also required us to make decisions
about which plugin was best for a given editor, even for editors we do
not use.
The Go community at large is much better suited to managing this information. In Go 1.4, therefore, this support has been removed from
the repository. Instead, there is a curated, informative list of
what’s available on a wiki page.
The standard Go distribution includes Go files for Vim in go/misc/vim/
. This directory contains a readme.txt
file which contains installation instructions.
