6" To use it, copy it to
7"     for Unix and OS/2:  ~/.vimrc
8"	      for Amiga:  s:.vimrc
9"  for MS-DOS and Win32:  $VIM\_vimrc
10"	    for OpenVMS:  sys$login:.vimrc
11
12" When started as "evim", evim.vim will already have done these settings.
13if v:progname =~? "evim"
14  finish
15endif
16
17" Use Vim settings, rather then Vi settings (much better!).
18" This must be first, because it changes other options as a side effect.
19set nocompatible

21" allow backspacing over everything in insert mode
22set backspace=indent,eol,start

29set history=50		" keep 50 lines of command line history
30set ruler		" show the cursor position all the time
31set showcmd		" display incomplete commands
32set incsearch		" do incremental searching
33
34" For Win32 GUI: remove 't' flag from 'guioptions': no tearoff menu entries
35" let &guioptions = substitute(&guioptions, "t", "", "g")
36
37" Don't use Ex mode, use Q for formatting
38map Q gq
39
40" This is an alternative that also works in block mode, but the deleted
41" text is lost and it only works for putting the current register.
42"vnoremap p "_dp

44" Switch syntax highlighting on, when the terminal has colors
45" Also switch on highlighting the last used search pattern.
