delimitMate not working on vim installed with Pathogen

I'm trying to install delimitMate on vim version 7.3. I am using Pathogen. My other pathogen bundles work, so it is not a problem with my setup.

In fact, I've also tried auto-pairs and ClosePairs plugins too, and none of them work. I don't know why? Am I using it wrong? Shouldn't a matching paren simply follow when I put an opening paren (similar to sublime Text?)

The commands :DelimitMateTest and :h delimitemate works, so the script is being executed. It's just not actually autoclosing any parens, and I can't figure out why.

Here's the output file for :DelimitMateTest: http://pastebin.com/2WtHVZJL

Any ideas as to why I can't get paren completion from any plugin?

Thanks!

  • For those of you who come across this problem in the future:

    I had set paste in my .vimrc. This permanently disables several other features, and it was messing up key mappings. Simply remove it from your .vimrc and you should fix your problem.
