Linting Vim files

If you add or change a Vim file, the CI will use vint to ensure best practices. Therefore it's recommended idea to run it locally first, before creating a pull request.

1. Install vint.
2. Recursively lint all Vim files:

   $ vint .
   

Writing test files

Generating test files

Use the generator to create Vader files from their canonical test data:

" in Vim
:source lib/generate.vim
:Generate word-count

This would fetch the canonical test data, decode the JSON to Vim data types, iterate over the result, and put the tests in a new unnamed buffer.
