If all you want to do is set the shiftwidth/tabstop then you can put those commands in your filtetype plugin's main file, for yours presumably in the /ftplugin/mine.vim file. That file will be sourced each time a file has its filetype set to 'mine'. If you want to do more complicated indenting based on the syntax in your filetype's files, then you should make a file with indent rules and place it in the /indent directory. See :h indent-txt for more info on the more complicated indent settings. -- Herb Sitz -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
