Does anyone know of a way to get vim to wrap long lines of text such that the position of the wrapped text is based on the indentation of the current line? I don't want to reformat my code, just for it to be displayed prettily.
For instance, if I set my settings so that the line:
print 'ProcessorError(%r, %r, %r)' % (self.file, self.index, self.message)
is displayed when wrapped as:
print 'ProcessorError(%r, %r, %r)' % (self.file, self.index,
self.message)
then if I write a block of code like this:
def __repr__(self):
return 'ProcessorError(%r, %r, %r)' % (self.file, self.index, self.message)
it wraps to something like this:
def __repr__(self):
return 'ProcessorError(%r, %r, %r)' % (self.file, self.index,
self.message)
I would prefer for it to be displayed as:
def __repr__(self):
return 'ProcessorError(%r, %r, %r)' % (self.file, self.index,
self.message)
Edit: after reading Don Werve's response, it seems that I am indeed looking for the breakindent
option, but the option is still on the "Awaiting updated patches" list (see Vim TODO). So what I'd like to know is what is the easiest way to get vim working with breakindent
? (I don't care what version of vim I have to use.)
