Philip Kirkbride eda4118dc2 Remove example script which breaks install
According to this discussion https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim/issues/713 this plugin is simply an example, but the example seems to consistently break the installation process.

If this is the case better to remove it.

Another example of it causing problems: https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim/issues/784

## [Help Maintain Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim/issues/383)
## About
[Vundle] is short for _Vim bundle_ and is a [Vim] plugin manager.
[Vundle] allows you to...
* keep track of and [configure] your plugins right in the `.vimrc`
* [install] configured plugins (a.k.a. scripts/bundle)
* [update] configured plugins
* [search] by name all available [Vim scripts]
* [clean] unused plugins up
* run the above actions in a *single keypress* with [interactive mode]
[Vundle] automatically...
* manages the [runtime path] of your installed scripts
* regenerates [help tags] after installing and updating
[Vundle] is undergoing an [interface change], please stay up to date to get latest changes.
[![Gitter-chat](https://badges.gitter.im/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.svg)](https://gitter.im/VundleVim/Vundle.vim) for discussion and support.

## Quick Start
1. Introduction:
Installation requires [Git] and triggers [`git clone`] for each configured repository to `~/.vim/bundle/` by default.
Curl is required for search.
If you are using Windows, go directly to [Windows setup]. If you run into any issues, please consult the [FAQ].
See [Tips] for some advanced configurations.
Using non-POSIX shells, such as the popular Fish shell, requires additional setup. Please check the [FAQ].
2. Set up [Vundle]:
`$ git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim`
3. Configure Plugins:
Put this at the top of your `.vimrc` to use Vundle. Remove plugins you don't need, they are for illustration purposes.
```vim
set nocompatible " be iMproved, required
filetype off " required
" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
"call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')
" let Vundle manage Vundle, required
Plugin 'VundleVim/Vundle.vim'
" The following are examples of different formats supported.
" Keep Plugin commands between vundle#begin/end.
" plugin on GitHub repo
Plugin 'tpope/vim-fugitive'
" Git plugin not hosted on GitHub
Plugin 'git://git.wincent.com/command-t.git'
" git repos on your local machine (i.e. when working on your own plugin)
Plugin 'file:///home/gmarik/path/to/plugin'
" The sparkup vim script is in a subdirectory of this repo called vim.
" Pass the path to set the runtimepath properly.
Plugin 'rstacruz/sparkup', {'rtp': 'vim/'}
" Install L9 and avoid a Naming conflict if you've already installed a
" different version somewhere else.
Plugin 'ascenator/L9', {'name': 'newL9'}
" All of your Plugins must be added before the following line
call vundle#end() " required
filetype plugin indent on " required
" To ignore plugin indent changes, instead use:
"filetype plugin on
"
" Brief help
" :PluginList - lists configured plugins
" :PluginInstall - installs plugins; append `!` to update or just :PluginUpdate
" :PluginSearch foo - searches for foo; append `!` to refresh local cache
" :PluginClean - confirms removal of unused plugins; append `!` to auto-approve removal
"
" see :h vundle for more details or wiki for FAQ
" Put your non-Plugin stuff after this line
```
4. Install Plugins:
Launch `vim` and run `:PluginInstall`
To install from command line: `vim +PluginInstall +qall`

## Inspiration & Ideas
* [pathogen.vim](http://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/)
* [Bundler](https://github.com/bundler/bundler)
* [Scott Bronson](http://github.com/bronson)
## Also
* Vundle was developed and tested with [Vim] 7.3 on OS X, Linux and Windows
* Vundle tries to be as [KISS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle) as possible
## TODO:
[Vundle] is a work in progress, so any ideas and patches are appreciated.
* [x] activate newly added bundles on `.vimrc` reload or after `:PluginInstall`
* [x] use preview window for search results
* [x] Vim documentation
* [x] put Vundle in `bundles/` too (will fix Vundle help)
* [x] tests
* [x] improve error handling
* [ ] allow specifying revision/version?
* [ ] handle dependencies
* [ ] show description in search results
* [ ] search by description as well
* [ ] make it rock!
