Vim plugin to fetch and display answers from Stack Overflow

Vim plugin to get answers from Stack Overflow. Inspired by SO-Eclipse-Plugin.

StackAnswers uses an external python module to parse data. You can install it via:

sudo apt-get install pip
pip install requests
pip install beautifulsoup4
pip install html5lib
