When I install plugins, I like to keep them organised in folders. For example, I have downloaded plugins that turn vim into a programming IDE. This file contains 16 folders and files which are installed in the ~/.vim directory. Is there a way I can have all of these files and folders stored in ~/.vim/ide_support?

2Have you ever tried github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim or github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen?– EvergreenTreeMar 6, 2015 at 18:13

No I haven't. Only started using vim 1-2 days ago.– iProgramMar 6, 2015 at 20:33

Unpack the plugin into ~/.vim/ide_support then add the following to your .vimrc.
set runtimepath+=~/.vim/ide_support
Vim will now look in ~/.vim/ide_support for plugins.
This is one of the things that a plugin manager such as pathogen does for you automatically.
