If you have wrap enabled in vim, but do not want it active while typing or pasting, then one easy way to "escape" those actions is to: :set paste That also negates autoindent (if otherwise active), avoiding staircase text on pasting text with any indenting. To make enable/disable of the paste mode a single keystroke, I have in .vimrc: set pastetoggle=<F12> # Press F12 for On, press again for Off. It is then useful to also have: set showmode so you can see in the status line whether you've forgotten to turn it off when not needed. The following is an alternative method, if you do not like the mode toggle: " Paste without needing pastetoggle to avoid staircase text, due to ai always set. " Works with "+y} in another vim instance. Also avoids wrapping. nnoremap <A-p> "+p inoremap <A-p> ^["+p^Mi The above text was pasted from text highlighted in another xterm, i.e. it reads from the X clipboard. I have just tested that it also copies a very long line without wrapping, despite wrapping being set for other cases. > but when I read the message, Mutt has a plus sign in front of each wrapped > line Yes, that default mutt behaviour is a pain. The following in .muttrc has worked for me for a long time now: set smart_wrap # Wrap set wrapmargin=10 # long lines. unset markers # No '+' line continuation crap. > I will check the docs for line/word wrapping further > > but if any one can help me keep what I got and just get rid of the > plus sign I would appreciate it Hopefully the above eliminates the problems for you, as they have done for me.
