" Here's a sample vimrc file that may be helpful for your programming (if you're
" using vim). Put this in your home directory, named _vimrc (windows) or
" .vimrc (linux/osx).

" To comment anything out, just put a double-quote in front. 
" Feel free to play with this file (but re-open vim when you make a change to
" see the change reflected). You can make changes when editing using ":set XXX"
" where XXX is the setting you want to change.


" Set the wrapping width (# of characters) of your buffer. (A buffer is the
" thing you're editing, which may be a file or just an unsaved thing.)
set textwidth=100

" This would cause the buffer to never wrap -- which is usually what I do when programming.
" set textwidth=0

" Tell vim to use syntax highlighting.
set syntax

" Tell vim to automatically indent on C-style blocks, etc.
set autoindent
set cindent

" We don't like tabs. Don't put them in. Use spaces instead.
set expandtab

" Treat tabs and indentations like 4 spaces (and vice-versa).
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4

" Incremental searching -- highlight matches while searching.
set incsearch

" Ignore case when searching -- turn this off with ":set noignorecase"
set ignorecase

" Highlight all occurrences of a search term.
set hlsearch

" Always keep a status line at the bottom of the screen.
set laststatus=2

" Show line numbers (I don't like this or use it, but you may find it useful).
