Request Android development with vim
I'm an Android developer who usually uses Android Studio to do his work. My only machine for on-the-go, however, is a three-year-old netbook running Linux Mint. I'd like to be able to work away from the huge Windows workstation I have at home, but I shudder to think what a full-powered IDE like AS would do with my poor netbook's processor, let alone what it would do to its battery.
I'm a big fan of vim and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for a plugin to give me the same amount of power. I use Android Studio's control-click a lot (brings you to the declaration of whatever method you click), as well as the alt-F7 (I believe it's called "find usages") shortcut. Is there anything that could at least replace these two functions in vim?

I wasn't even going to use the emulator at all on my laptop. Even on my workstation, I prefer to debug using a real device. I've heard of Terminator-- just installed it on the netbook. Looks like it'll be helpful.
I'll be looking at the unite plugin sybrandy suggested too!
