Title: Vim
Post by: WMD on 12 June 2004, 23:44: I'm writing a website in Vim, and the program likes to indent new lines I create. However, I don't like this very much and rarely indent code...is there a way to turn it off?

(BTW, I have GVim 6.2)

However, mind that the the file for gVim is called "_vimrc".
Plus, I kinda like indent. It saves resources (http://smile.gif)

vim's great for doing websites in and i tend to use it too, although for a dreamweaver user i would recommend using quanta and bluefish first, then graduating to nano, pico or jed, and then moving on to emacs or vim afterwards.

And yes nano is very good. Conceptually i prefer it to pico since it is a lot smaller and is not part of a larger package (it is unlikely that people who have a GUI would use pine anyway, even if they had to use a text email tool, let's face it mutt's nicer).

i think "joe" is a very good editor though, it has modes where it can behave almost exactly like emacs and pico (you just run jmacs or jpico instead of joe). jove is quite nice too, emacs without the bloat.

also i really like "cream".it's an alternative graphical shell for vim, which looks a lot nicer than gvim, however one major failing is that it doesn't have the keyboard shortcuts printed on the menus next to the actions, so it is not easy to learn how to use vim properly from using it. also sadly you can't have cream and gvim installed atthe same time :-(

as far as i am aware.

Post by: TheQuirk on 23 June 2004, 05:33: WMD, have you ever gotten it working?

And for the record, I've been using Emacs more and more lately. The tutorial taught me Emacs very quickly. (http://smile.gif)
