• all open viewers automatically scroll to keep in sync with your cursor in Vim

• g:vivify_instant_refresh = 0
  • refresh page contents on CursorHold and CursorHoldI
• g:vivify_auto_scroll = 1
  • enable viewer auto-scroll (default)
• g:vivify_auto_scroll = 0
  • disable viewer auto-scroll
• g:vivify_filetypes
  • additional filetypes to recognize as markdown
  • for example let g:vivify_filetypes = ['vimwiki']
