I don't like the default indentation behavior when pasting in vim. My solution is | Code: | set paste
set pastetoggle=<F11> |

It will work, it makes insertion mode the default mode which can't be turned of by just pressing escape. Might seem strange if you are very used to using normal mode, it basically cripples vim  |

| At first I really didn't like vim's exec/normal mode in my wee years as a complete newb. Now I know better and loves it. |

I wish I still had a flavor of linux installed so that I could use vim in it's true environment.
Currently I have gvim installed on windows, but I rarely have anything to use it for, as I'm not much of a programmer.

Heh. 
| Code: | colorscheme delek
set autoindent
set history=1000
set ignorecase
set incsearch
set nobackup
set nocompatible
set nohlsearch
set nowrap
set number
set ruler
set showcmd
set tabstop=4
set title
set ttyfast
syntax on |
I'm wondering whether or not I should remove the set number.

erikm ... if vim is compiled with +clipboard (USE="X") then you can use the "* or "+ registers eg: "*p
Using a register is much faster, and is more like :r and avoids the 'thrashing' (typical of paste). Compare the following:
| Code: | # xclip -i bigfile.txt
# vim
:set paste
(paste x11 clipboard) |
... and
| Code: | # xclip -i bigfile.txt
# vim
"*p |
The later will 'paste' almost instantaniously, while the former will 'thrash' as each char/line is copied from the X11 clipboard into the file. See :help x11-selection and :help registers
Hopefully the above justifies the necromancy :)
best ... khay |
