Yesterday I came across jedi-vim plugin which provides auto-completion for python. I installed the plugin using pathogen by placing it in bundle
directory and it is working fine.
Now, as I have mentioned that this plugin is only for filetype: python
so I want to load it only when I open files with .py
extensions and not when I open other files like .java, .perl, .sh
.
So, how can this be achieved.
I am a vim beginner/noob but I googled before asking and found that this can be achieved using vim ftplugin
but I have no idea whatsoever where to place which file.
