Hi, I'm trying to use 'formatlistpat' to format unordered lists with
'-' as a bullet:

 :set flp=^\s*-\s*

You need to escape the backslashes...
:set flp=^\\s*-\\s*

:help option-backslash

Also, be sure the 'n' flag is present in 'formatoptions'.

Thanks for the reply. That was indeed a problem with my pattern, but I tried it now escaping exactly as you say, and it doesn't work still. I do have 'n' in 'fo'. It basically indents as if '-' wasn't there. I tried both escaping and double-escaping the '-' (and not escaping, too, of course).
