Hawkins Date: Thu, 08 Mar 2001 13:34:05 -0500 From: hawk Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It's about time to start coding again, and I've been poking at vim. Looks like I don't need to write my own f90 syntax file this time (hmm, I sent mine in and got no response. Maybe this *is* mine :) Anyway, I'm tring to get it to do colored syntax highlighting in a regular xterm. I know about gvim (so I know it works :), but I'd rather stay on with my xterminals (or some enhanced xterminal :). That line of buttons on the top of gvim . . . it's a slippery slope :) So just what do I set? And while I'm picking someone's brains, how do I tell it to automatically indent my fortran? I've tried looking into that before, but get lost in the c-stuff (which it apparently does). I just want to set a 3 space indent at each level. Last time I ended up loading into emacs, ^k'ing the entire file, then yanking it back when i needed to adjust indentation. (and like any dealings with that heretical thing, it leaves you feeling dirty :) hawk o To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
