+" clear, we can load the main vimrc file from ~/.vim/vimrc to use Vim in all

+" If we got this far, it means we're running a tiny, 'compatible', and/or
+" ancient version of Vim.
+"
+" So, strip out our user runtime directories from 'runtimepath', force
+" 'compatible' on, source your trusty ~/.exrc, put on your dubbed cassette
+" copy of Kraftwerk's 'Computerwelt', and start using Sun OS 4.x vi v3.7, from
+" July 1985.
+"
+" Don't grizzle, just use it. It's good for you, like raisin bran.
