Good point. If you want to add to or modify the settings in that
file, _don't_modify_that_file_. Any changes you make to that file
may be lost the next time you update Vim. Instead, put your
settings into an after plugin you create, in this case,
~/.vim/after/ftplugin/python.vim. Also, for filetype-specific
settings, you should use setlocal rather than set, e.g.,
setlocal tabstop=4
setlocal softtabstop=4
setlocal shiftwidth=4
setlocal textwidth=79
setlocal expandtab
setlocal autoindent
setlocal fileformat=unix
See:
:help ftplugin-overrule
The above will work fine, but to do it "right", the after/ftplugin
file should look like this:
let s:save_cpo = &cpo
set cpo-=C
setlocal tabstop=4
setlocal softtabstop=4
setlocal shiftwidth=4
setlocal textwidth=79
setlocal expandtab
setlocal autoindent
setlocal fileformat=unix
let b:undo_ftplugin = (exists("b:undo_ftplugin") ? b:undo_ftplugin . "|" :
"")
\ . "setlocal tabstop< softtabstop< shiftwidth< textwidth< expandtab<
autoindent< fileformat<"
let &cpo = s:save_cpo
unlet s:save_cpo
See:
:help undo_ftplugin
:help filetype-plugin
:help use-cpo-save

Gary
