A lot of ftplugin files turn comment-wrapping on with a

set formatoptions+=c
I want to globally disable it. Is there an easy way to do
this? I know I can disable it for particular filetypes by
creating files in vimfiles\after\ftplugin\ specifying "set
formatoptions-=c" but there are a lot of them.
Two methods I've found from searching are
. Maintain a single file and use symbolic links to make vim
access it for each filetype. A bit clumsy - new filetypes
might appear later, I want to maintain real
filetype-specific files as well, etc.
. Use autocmd events to set this. This works in many cases
but different edge cases are missed by different events so
I'm not sure which events to use. Also it seems to be
"fighting vim" - trying to keep checking in case vim has
changed the setting and change it back. I'd like it to just
work, reliably.
Is there a simpler method?

Try adding this near the end of your vimrc:
au VimEnter * au FileType * setlocal fo-=c
This is supposed to add ":setlocal fo-=c" at the end of the list of
FileType autocommands for any filetype. (The VimEnter event is triggered
at the very end of startup.)
The problem is that if you forget to break lines when typing a comment,
you might find yourself with a single-line comment of, let's say, 1000
characters, which might be, hm, shall we say, a little awkward?
Another possible problem is that if you use the "filetype plugin off"
command, it may disable this autocommand, which won't be set again by
"filetype plugin on". In that case you should add it near the end of a
~/.vim/after/filetype.vim (for Unix / Linux / Mac OSX) or
~/vimfiles/after/filetype.vim (for Windows) (neither this file nor its
directory exist by default, create them if necessary, DON'T modify
$VIMRUNTIME/filetype.vim):
"------------------------------------filetype.vim start
augroup filetypedetect
"
" ... maybe some custom filetype-detection if-clauses
"
au FileType * setlocal fo-=c
augroup END
"------------------------------------filetype.vim end
Thus will be set again every time you do ":filetype [plugin] [indent]
on". I am less sure that this will remove the c flag *after* it has been
set though.
Best regards,
Tony.
