Gary, you explain my situation correctly.  I actually don't mind it
deleting the spaces because I can press S on a blank line and it will
correctly put in the spacing I want, but if anyone else edits my files
(in Eclipse), they have to tab all of the blank lines over.

I did see that thread, and I actually tried to post there, but for
some reason my reply was never posted, so that's why I started a new
thread.  Not sure what happened with that.

In response to this: "You could add the 'I' flag to 'cpoptions' to
prevent the indent from being deleted when you move the cursor to
another line"

>From the explanation, it looks like the 'I' option is precisely what I
want, but there is no 'I' option for cpoptions that I saw in the vim
docs: http://www.vim.org/htmldoc/options.html#%27cpoptions%27
and I didn't see any other option that would provide the behavior I
want.

Also, the doing this: ":inoremap <CR> x<BS><CR>" messes other things
up for me IIRC.  I ran into that 'trick' a while back and tried it,
but I promptly removed it for some reason.  It may be that, if I press
escape on a line with only indentation (not edited) then it will
become a blank line.

Modifying that will fix the issue I mentioned above and this inoremap
seems to work, but I think it will mess up in some other way (I just
can't remember how):
:inoremap <CR> <space><BS><CR><space><BS>

Surely there's an option that "fixes" this for me without having to do
such a hacky trick.
