Don't understand the vim script config

[Ross-Li]

By saying

lua << EOF
  require("todo-comments").setup {
    -- your configuration comes here
    -- or leave it empty to use the default settings
    -- refer to the configuration section below
  }
EOF

in the vim script config method, do you mean to include this code directly into the init.vim file??? It doesn't seems to work for me because the syntax highlighing suggests it can't recognize this code. Can you please add in the document about where exactly to include this code in?

[folke]

in init.vim or anywhere else. Just make sure this code is ran after the plugin is loaded

[Ross-Li]

@folke I have already included this code in init.vim, but the plugin doesn't work.

[folke]

Are you sure the plugin was loaded before executing this? What plugin manager are you using?

[Ross-Li]

Just vimplug, here is my init.vim

Can you show me the file where it should highlight?

Also, you don't seem to have treesitter installed, so comments_only won't work. (you may have to disable it)

[Ross-Li]

Ahhh I see, maybe it is the absence of TreeSitter. I will have a look at it. For now the icon works. Thank you for your timely response!
