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
20
21" allow backspacing over everything in insert mode
22set backspace=indent,eol,start

24if has("vms")

26else
27  set backup		" keep a backup file
28endif
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" In many terminal emulators the mouse works just fine, thus enable it.
41set mouse=a
42
43" Switch syntax highlighting on, when the terminal has colors
44" Also switch on highlighting the last used search pattern.
45if &t_Co > 2 || has("gui_running")

50" Only do this part when compiled with support for autocommands.

53  " Enable file type detection.
54  " Use the default filetype settings, so that mail gets 'tw' set to 72,
55  " 'cindent' is on in C files, etc.
56  " Also load indent files, to automatically do language-dependent indenting.
57  filetype plugin indent on

66  " When editing a file, always jump to the last known cursor position.
67  " Don't do it when the position is invalid or when inside an event handler
68  " (happens when dropping a file on gvim).

83" file it was loaded from, thus the changes you made.
