Hi,
I'm using different versions 6.x of Vim in my computers and I have this
problem when editing python and html files. This is in Linux.
Many times when I want to correct something I'm typing I use the
backspace key. That line is indented after pressing that key, which
annoys me a lot.
This also happens sometimes when I hit <ENTER> at the end of a line.
What should I do to prevent this behavior?
Luis P. Mendes
The behaviour of <Enter> at the end of a line is governed by several
settings, see
:help 'autointent'
:help 'smartindent'
:help 'indentexpr'
:help :filetype-indent-on
:help :filetype-indent-off
:help :filetype-overview
To force <Enter> in Insert mode to always return to column 1 without
indenting, use
:set noautoindent nosmartindent indentexpr=
:filetype indent off
This applies to all platforms, and hasn't changed since earlier than
version 6.
To be able to backspace over a line break, see ":help 'backspace'".
Best regards,
Tony.
