Hi,
I just realized that editing a directory removes t from
&formatoptions. E.g.
set formatoptions+=rw
&fo = tcqrw
e Foo
&fo = tcqrw
e .
&fo = cqrw
e Bar
&fo = cqrw
This doesn't happen with the --noplugin switch so I'd assume that some
standard vim plugin is causing this -- maybe netrw? Can somebody
verify this?
Regards,
Thomas.
- AFAIK, "editibg a directory" requires the netrw plugin
- 'formatoptions' is local to buffer; if you specify neither ":setlocal
fo?" not ":setglobal fo?", neither &l:fo nor &g:fo, what you get is the
buffer-local copy, not the global default.
- If the global default is modified too, then there could be a bug in
netrw.vim (maybe changing via ":set" rather than ":setlocal" and later
restoring only the local value, or not restoring at all).
Summary:
:set fo? " displays the local value
:setl fo? " displays the local value
:setg fo? " displays the global default
:set fo-=t " changes both local & global
:setl fo-=t " changes the local value only
:setg fo-=t "changes the global default only
:let save_fo = &fo " saves the local value only
:let &fo = save_fo " restores both local & global
