The vim distribution already contains python.vim files for syntax, indenting and general configuration. It also contains a similar set of c.vim and cpp.vim files. These should all be in the appropriate subdirectories under $VIMRUNTIME. You might take a look at :help ftplugins :help filetype-indent-on :help filetype-overview :help usr_43.txt :help usr_06.txt If the files supplied with vim for Python don't do what you want, you might also search the scripts and tips at vim.sf.net for "python".
