Hi Mathieu.

For
instance for taglist you are supposed to do:

...
2. Change to the $HOME/.vim/doc or $HOME/vimfiles/doc or $VIM/vimfiles/doc
directory, start Vim and run the ":helptags ." command to process the
taglist help file. Without this step, you cannot jump to the taglist
help
topics.
...

Here is what I did:

cd /usr/share/vim-scripts/doc
vim

then from vim

:helptags .

which return:

E152: Cannot open ./tags for writing

Of course I can run the command as root, but is it going to work for
my user than ?

Why don’t you follow the first advice then and run the command in $HOME/.vim/doc?
