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?

        Thanks in advance

                Matej Cepl
