"set ai" will only tab across the same number of tabs as the previous line. For example, if I type: if [ -z "$VARIABLE" ]; then <tab> echo "foo" and hit enter, the cursor will be placed beneath the "e" of echo, ready for me to put more code in the block. "set cindent" will automatically indent C code the way you want, but I don't know whether it'll do other languages.
