Found this *very* helpful tip (at least for me) about handling cut/pastes of formated text into Vim... http://www.vim.org/tips/tip.php?tip_id=330
Since VIM 6.0 the indent has been improved so much. But sometimes when we are pasting formated text (source code or HTML etc) into a buffer, VIM indents again so that lines will be padded with too many spaces. Setting nocindent, noautoindent, nosmartindent still cannot stop this. All you need to do is ":set paste", then paste your stuff, and then ":set nopaste" again.
