120 When the option was set by hand there is no "Last set" message. There is only
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss

121 one value for all local options with the same name. Thus the message applies
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001

3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

131 override the value from the termcap. You can then use it in a mapping. If
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
132 the "xx" part contains special characters, use the <t_xx> form: >

133 :set <t_#4>=^[Ot
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001

134 This can also be used to translate a special code for a normal key. For

135 example, if Alt-b produces <Esc>b, use this: >

149 To include white space in a string option value it has to be preceded with a
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
150 backslash. To include a backslash you have to use two. Effectively this
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
151 means that the number of backslashes in an option value is halved (rounded

216 The following explains what happens to these local options in specific

vimboss

217 situations. You don't really need to know all of this, since Vim mostly uses

vimboss

218 the option values you would expect. Unfortunately, doing what the user

221 When splitting a window, the local options are copied to the new window. Thus

224 When editing a new buffer, its local option values must be initialized. Since
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
225 the local options of the current buffer might be specifically for that buffer,
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
226 these are not used. Instead, for each buffer-local option there also is a
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
227 global value, which is used for new buffers. With ":set" both the local and
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
228 global value is changed. With "setlocal" only the local value is changed,
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
229 thus this value is not used when editing a new buffer.

232 options are used again. If this buffer has been edited in this window, the
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
233 values from back then are used. Otherwise the values from the window where
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

234 the buffer was edited last are used.

236 It's possible to set a local window option specifically for a type of buffer.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
237 When you edit another buffer in the same window, you don't want to keep
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
238 using these local window options. Therefore Vim keeps a global value of the
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
239 local window options, which is used when editing another buffer. Each window
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
240 has its own copy of these values. Thus these are local to the window, but
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
241 global to all buffers in the window. With this you can do: >
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
242 :e one
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001

vimboss
parents:

244 :e two
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
245 Now the 'list' option will also be set in "two", since with the ":set list"
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
246 command you have also set the global value. >

vimboss
parents:

3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001

309 For example, you have two windows, both on C source code. They use the global
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
310 'makeprg' option. If you do this in one of the two windows: >
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
311 :set makeprg=gmake
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
312 then the other window will switch to the same value. There is no need to set
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
313 the 'makeprg' option in the other C source window too.

314 However, if you start editing a Perl file in a new window, you want to use
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
315 another 'makeprog' for it, without changing the value used for the C source

316 files. You use this command: >

vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
317 :setlocal makeprg=perlmake
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
318 You can switch back to using the global value by making the local value empty: >
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
319 :setlocal makeprg=
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
320 This only works for a string option. For a boolean option you need to use the
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
321 "<" flag, like this: >
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
322 :setlocal autoread<
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
323 Note that for non-boolean options using "<" copies the global value to the
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
324 local value, it doesn't switch back to using the global value (that matters
809
4f1b94b51e99 updated for version 7.0b02
vimboss
parents: 804
diff changeset
325 when the global value changes later). You can also use: >
4f1b94b51e99 updated for version 7.0b02
vimboss
parents: 804
diff changeset
326 :set path<
4f1b94b51e99 updated for version 7.0b02
vimboss
parents: 804
diff changeset
327 This will make the local value of 'path' empty, so that the global value is
4f1b94b51e99 updated for version 7.0b02

328 used. Thus it does the same as: >

809 "light". When the value is not set in the .gvimrc, and Vim detects

810 that the background is actually quite dark, 'background' is set to
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

812 (because the window needs to be opened to find the actual background

2354 setting 'encoding' to one of these values instead of utf-8 only has

6445 There are four main ways to use tabs in Vim:
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
6446 1. Always keep 'tabstop' at 8, set 'softtabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to 4
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
6447 (or 3 or whatever you prefer) and use 'noexpandtab'. Then Vim
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
6448 will use a mix of tabs and spaces, but typing Tab and BS will
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

6449 behave like a tab appears every 4 (or 3) characters.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

6450 2. Set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to whatever you prefer and use
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

6451 'expandtab'. This way you will always insert spaces. The
