### Vimpager ### ### Vimpager ###
Once darkcloud-vimconfig has been set up, you can configure `vimpager` to use it by running: `ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc /etc/vimpagerrc` for a system-wide configuration, or `ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc ~/.vimpagerrc` for a given user (assuming you've used the default path @ _"/etc/darkcloud-vimconfig"_). Once darkcloud-vimconfig has been set up, you can configure `vimpager` to use it by running (assuming the default path @ _"/etc/darkcloud-vimconfig"_):
As usual, to have your system use vimpager in place of less, you'll need to set the PAGER environment variable to vimpager: `export PAGER=vimpager` and configure an alias for less: `alias less='vimpager'`. `ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc /etc/vimpagerrc` (for a system-wide configuration)
or:
`ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc ~/.vimpagerrc` (for a given user).
Similarly, the _vimpagerrc_ can be used for `vimcat` as well by running:
`ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc /etc/vimcatrc` (for a system-wide configuration)
or:
`ln -s /etc/darkcloud-vimconfig/vimpagerrc ~/.vimcatrc` (for a given user).
As usual, to have your system use `vimpager` in place of `less`, you'll need to set the **$PAGER** environment variable to `vimpager`:
`export PAGER=vimpager`
and configure aliases for less and cat in _"/etc/bash.bashrc"_ or _"~/.bashrc"_:
```
alias less='vimpager'
alias cat='vimcat'
```
