Interesting. On Linux it is detection and plugin on, and indent off (even though "set autoindent") is in my RC file. On Windows all three are on. >? Maybe the settings are different on both systems.

There are some differences. I am moving towards one vimrc that I can use on any system, but I'm not there yet. What I find odd is that <tab> takes up 4 spaces on Windows, when ts=2. -- yours, William
