========
|

|
|
The set command has the following syntax:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[se]t (variable) (value)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Value) is assigned to (variable). If (variable) and
|
||
|
|
(value) are not specified, the a window containing a list
|
||
|
|
of all values is displayed.
|
||
|
|
From the display window, a variable may be selected (with ENTER), and a
|
||
|
|
new value entered. If the variable was boolean, then pressing
|
||
|
|
enter toggles the value.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If a variable is a boolean variable, then it may be set via
|
||
|
|
set var - set var to TRUE
|
||
|
|
set novar - set var to FALSE
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Boolean variables:
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
[ai][autoi]ndent - in insert mode, cause cursor to indent to
|
||
|
|
start of previous line when a new line is
|
||
|
|
started; in command mode, cause cursor to go
|
||
|
|
to first non white-space when ENTER is pressed.
|
||
|
|
[ac][automessagecl]ear- automatically erase message window when
|
||
|
|
a key is typed in command mode.
|
||
|
|
[bf][beepf]lag - turns off beep when an error is made
|
||
|
|
[ci][caseig]nore - make all searches case insensitive
|
||
|
|
[cs][casesh]ift - "case" statements are NOT shifted when
|
||
|
|
cmode is set.
|
||
|
|
[cv][ch]angelikevi - causes the change command to behave like vi
|
||
|
|
(ie, if ESC is pressed when no change has
|
||
|
|
been made, the text is deleted)
|
||
|
|
[cl][cl]ock - enables/disables the clock display
|
||
|
|
[cm][cm]ode - when cmode is set, certain things will happen
|
||
|
|
when you are entering text:
|
||
|
|
1) after entering a line ending in '{',
|
||
|
|
the next line will be indented a ShiftWidth
|
||
|
|
further than the current one.
|
||
|
|
2) after entering a line ending in '}',
|
||
|
|
the current line is shifted to match the
|
||
|
|
indentation of the line with the matching
|
||
|
|
'{'. The cursor will flash for a brief
|
||
|
|
instant on the matching '{' if showmatch
|
||
|
|
is set.
|
||
|
|
3) All lines entered will have trailing white
|
||
|
|
space trimmed off.
|
||
|
|
4) "case" and "default" statements are shifted
|
||
|
|
to be aligned with switch statements
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each file has its own "cmode" setting;
|
||
|
|
so setting cmode in one file and not in
|
||
|
|
another (during the same editing session)
|
||
|
|
will work.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One thing that is useful is to add the
|
||
|
|
following lines to your read hook script:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if %E str == .c
|
||
|
|
set cmode
|
||
|
|
else
|
||
|
|
set nocmode
|
||
|
|
endif
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will cause cmode to be set if the file
|
||
|
|
has a .c extension, and not to be set for
|
||
|
|
any other type of file.
