The tilde.town default vimrc

I was shocked to find such a wild default vim setup when I first started up with tildetown. Crazy red blocks highlighted, line numbers by default, and all kinds of unexpected wildness.

And not only that, but auto-magical indentation (that then gets removed in the case of another carriage return). Who knew?

Here's what it looks like:

set nocompatible  " Use Vim defaults

  set backspace=indent,eol,start  " reasonable backspace in insert mode

  set modelines=0   " Modelines are a security hazard

  " Formatting
  set expandtab   " Automatically expand tabs to spaces
  set tabstop=2   " tab width
  set shiftwidth=2  " wide, otherwise it's tabstop wide
  set softtabstop=2   " Simulated tabstop of 4 by using spaces and tabs
  set textwidth=78  " where to wrap lines
  set fo=crq      " when to wrap lines
  set autoindent  " set auto-indenting on

  " Display
  set ruler   " show the cursor position
  set nowrap  " don't warp display

  set laststatus=2
  set encoding=utf-8

  set showmatch   " show matching brackets
  set showcmd   " show (partial) command in status line

  "set wildmenu
  set wildmode=list:longest,full

  " Searching
  set incsearch   " incremental search
  set infercase   " handle case in a smart way in autocompletes
  set ignorecase  " ignore case in search
  set smartcase   " unless the search string contains uppercase
  set hlsearch  " highlighted search

  " Display whitespace characters nicely when using 'set list'
  set listchars=eol:$,tab:>-,trail:-,extends:>,precedes:<

  filetype plugin on    " enable filetype detection
  filetype indent on    " enable language-depenent indentation

  syntax enable
  set background=dark
  set t_Co=256
  colorscheme elflord
  highlight clear SignColumn

  highlight RedundantSpaces ctermbg=red
  match RedundantSpaces /\s\+$\| \+\ze\t\|\t/

  set number  " line numbers
  set scrolloff=5
  set hidden

  set nobackup

  set pastetoggle=
