The vim-startify plugin can be used to display a start screen for Vim. It is pretty cool to display a custom header in the start screen. Adding such a header is pretty easy.
First, generate the text header you want to use. For example, you can use figlet to generate a beautiful ASCII art header.
Next, in your vimrc, set this header to the global variable named startify_custom_header. If there are any single quote characters, repeat it.
An example of a custom header:
let g:startify_custom_header = [ \ ' __ ___ _____ _____ ', \ ' \ \ / (_)_ __ ___ |___ |___ / ', \ ' \ \ / /| | ''_ ` _ \ / / |_ \ ', \ ' \ V / | | | | | | | / /_ ___) |', \ ' \_/ |_|_|![]()
/_/(_)____/ ', \ '', \ '', \ ]
Tried with: vim-startify 1.6, Vim 7.3.429 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
