1: offtopic: vim question...
Posted by David Kuczek on 05/03/02 01:00 PM
I have three quick question using vim:

1. How can I reverse changes that I have undone with "u"? For example
when I have undone changes accidentally and want them to reappear...

2. How can I move a block of text x spaces to the left or right (indent)?

3. Is there a setting that auto indents tcl and html code?

Thanks

1.- Undo/redo (answer to your first question): 
Undo/Redo commands
N  u            undo N last changes
N  CTRL-R       redo N last undone changes
   U            restore last changed line

2. Select the block of text with "V" and your arrows (or direction keys) and hit "=". ("=" in one line will indent that line)

3. Uncomment "set autoindent" in your /usr/share/vim/vimrc (or in your ~/.vimrc). You can test before modifying by doing ":set autoindent".
