Tiny Suggestion: Make clearer that one needs to install dependency vim-ingo-library about vim-mark HOT 1 CLOSED

Thanks for the feedback, and welcome to Vim; it's indeed a bit special and occasionally "weird" due to its heritage, but well worth learning!

I'm aware of the problems of plugin dependencies; unfortunately, though some plugin managers already allow to model and automatically handle dependencies, this is still an uphill battle, and far from solved. With over 100 plugins published, not having dependencies would not be feasible for me, neither.

Therefore, I try to clearly document the dependency (and the docs state Requires the ingo-library.vim plugin) - this plugin's documentation is very long, so it's easy to overlook. My second line of defense is the custom GitHub issue template, that explicitly addresses failures due to the ingo-library missing. That has greatly reduced the amount of emails and issues for me, but yes, it still isn't optimal, and I hope that sometime in the future plugin managers will solve this once and for all.

Happy Vimming!
