I don't know if this is so much a > Debian issue or a vim mixed with my ssh client issue? Its a vim mixed with any X terminal issue. When you paste into a terminal vim has no way of knowing whether you typed in those characters or they were pasted in. So it treats them as typed, and it will auto indent if autoindent is on. You can fix this by turning autoindent off (set noai) or setting paste mod, as others have said. Turning autoindent off completely is overkill for me, but it might make sense if you don't do much code. Though I do have it off for use with mutt, where I seldom want indentation anyway. -- Jim Crumley |Twin Cities Linux Users Group Mailing List (TCLUG) crumley at fields.space.umn.edu |Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Ruthless Debian Zealot |http://www.mn-linux.org/ Never laugh at live dragons |Dmitry's free,Jon's next? http://faircopyright.org _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
