I found stuff like this before and have been using it: " When using mutt or slrn, text width=72 autocmd BufRead mutt*[0-9] set tw=72 autocmd BufRead .followup,.article,.letter set tw=72 " " Text files have a text width of 72 characters autocmd BufNewFile *.txt set tw=72 autocmd BufRead *.txt set tw=72
I'm sure the same could be said for C files, like so: autocmd BufNewFile *.c set formatoptions=croql cindent autocmd BufRead *.c set formatoptions=croql cindent -Rob > On 20010827.1826, Karsten M.
