:set backspace=indent,eol,start or your preferred combination. This is often done by a systemwide vimrc, which is probably the case on Ubuntu. You can check what exactly Ubuntu does by checking its system vimrc and gvimrc: :e $VIM/vimrc :e $VIM/gvimrc or if that doesn't work, do :version and check what the system vimrc and gvimrc actually are. :help 'backspace' Ben. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
