Run `rpm -qa | grep vim` to get the version of vim. You should be using Vim 5.7 . > I just want to set the command > :set sts=3 > as default I believe adding the following line to your .vimrc file should suffice: set sts=3 > How to do this - (or better still, is there an easier document > that explains this)? I have O'Reilly's "vi Editor Pocket Reference" on my desk at all times. I've also found the Vim website to be quite useful. > What are the .vimrc and .exrc files? .vimrc is the configuration file for vim. It should be in your home directory. It's where you add all the settings you want by default. ex is one of vim's mode but I've never heard of a .exrc file.
