how to uninstall spf13-vim

[spearmint]

I tried to install spf13-vim but it didn't go well. I'm on OSX 10.4 (tiger) which had a vim version of 6.2. So I tried to upgrade to vim 7.3 via MacPorts but for some reason "vim --version" still says 6.2 even though 7.3 was installed and "which vim" points to the macports location. So then to try to right the ship I installed macvim 7.3 but that still pulls up the same errors from botched install of spf13-vim.

Is there a way to roll back to the default and effectively uninstall spf13-vim?
Thanks.

spearmint,

What errors are you getting "from the botched install of sfp13-vim"?

I am not aware of an automated uninstall, but it should be fairly simple to get it removed.

Take a look at your home directory, during installation spf13-vim made backups of the original vim files

.vim => .vimYYYYMMDD

.vimrc => .vimrcYYYYMMDD

.gvimrc => .gvimrcYYYYMMDD

This should restore your default (I have not tried it):

rm .vim

rm .vimrc

mv .vimYYYYMMDD .vim

mv .vimrcYYYYMMDD .vimrc

mv .gvimrcYYYYMMDD .gvimrc (if it exists)

optionally you can delete .spf13-vim-3

Does this work?

I want to uninstall this, I am new to vim and don't need most of the stuff this comes with.

my colors are not display correctly.

How to get rid of the white space indicators ?

running the uninstall script should do it for you.
