*airline.txt*  Lean and mean statusline

==============================================================================
RATIONALE                                                          *airline*

there's already powerline <https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline>, why yet
another statusline?

*  it's standard vimscript, no python needed
*  it's small. i want the entire plugin to be less than 200 lines as a rule
*  gets you 90% of the way there: in addition to all the standard goodies,
*  supports fugitve <https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive> and
*  syntastic <https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic>
*  integration with vim-bufferline <https://github.com/bling/vim-bufferline>
*  looks good with regular fonts, with support to use powerline font glyths
*  it's fast to load.  since it's so small, it only takes 0.5ms to load.
   by comparison, powerline needs 60ms on the same machine.

NAME                                                          *airline-name*

why's it called airline?

i wrote this on an airplane, and since it's light as air it turned out to be a
good name :-)
