Julien, I've run into this problem as well. There are a couple things I do to deal with the way vim wraps text.
First, I typeset my math in a certain style: - I almost always use the AMS align or align* environments. [see :h imaps.txt for how to make LatexSuite style maps, I use EAL and EAS, respectively]. - For long equations, I only put one term on each line. - For terms on the right-hand side, I prepend each line with '{} '. So LHS terms go all the way to the left, slightly indented. RHS terms are indented by three more columns due to the '{} '. Doing it this way immediately makes vim's native linewise commands MUCH more useful in equations. Second, I have the following code in my ~/.vim/ftplugin/tex.vim: omap <buffer> lp ?^$\\|^\s*\(\\begin\\|\\end\\|\\renewcommand\\|\\label\\|\\item\)?1<CR>//-1<CR>.<CR> nmap gwlp gwlp`` The first line makes an object for a "LaTeX paragraph". You can use it with gw, as in gwlp. The second line makes gwlp also do "``" so the cursor is in the same place in the text as it was previously. Basically, gwlp will reformat the current paragraph until it reaches a blank line or a begin or end of environment or a label or an item command. This way gwlp won't mess up your math, but your text will still be formatted correctly. Hope this helps! -Mike Richman On Wed, Jan 7, 2009 at 5:32 AM, Julien Cornebise <julien.corneb...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear all, > > I suggest this feature to be added : allow two distinct "tw" settings for > normal and math modes. > > Personnally, I often want my paragraphsto be tw=72, but to wrap my math > formulas myself (i.e. tw=0), regardless of the length of line -- some > intricate math expressions can sometimes be more appreciated on a very long > line by themselves, when the things around matter more. > > I don't know how easy this is to implement, though. > Best, and thanks for this great tool ! > > Julien > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace. > It is the best place to buy or sell services for > just about anything Open Source. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/Xq1LFB > _______________________________________________ > Vim-latex-devel mailing list > Vim-latex-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vim-latex-devel > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
