Hi, trying to set textwidth in my $EDITOR (i.e., vim 6.0) to 65, but even though I have following in my ~/.vimrc, it is always initially set to 78, when starting vim as a message editor (well, when started as ANY editor for that matter).
set tabstop=3 set shiftwidth=3 set noexpandtab if has("autocmd") filetype plugin indent on autocmd FileType text setlocal textwidth=65 endif " has("autocmd") " Local additions set textwidth=65 Is anybody able to help me (sorry, for OT question, but I guess that there are many vim users on this list), please?
