HTML Wrapping

There's several things that all need to be in place. Just to summarize them all in one location:

Set the following option:

:filetype indent on

:set filetype=html           # abbrev -  :set ft=html

:set smartindent             # abbrev -  :set si

Then either move the cursor to the top of the file and indent to the end: gg =G

Or select the desired text to indent and hit = to indent it.

:!tidy -mi -xml -wrap 0 %

:!tidy -mi -wrap 0 %

Show Spaces as dots:

set lcs+=space:·

'':set wrap linebreak nolist''  

# Remove all hard Breaks 

'':g/^\s*\n.*\S/+norm vipJ 1''  

#Vim modelines for word processing    

''vim:tw=80 fo=ant noai wrap nonu''

''vim:tw=80 fo=ant wm=0''

Turn off auto Wrap:

setlocal noautoindent

setlocal nocindent

setlocal nosmartindent

setlocal indentexpr=

Wrap to 78 and rewrap entire document

:set tw=78

gg

gqG

Remove All Hard Wraps

:set tw=9999999999

gg

gqG

These are the settings I typically recommend you set up when working with text documents:

setlocal formatoptions=ant

setlocal textwidth=80

setlocal wrapmargin=0

''vim:tw=80 fo=ant wm=0''

Map Some Keys

map <f2> gqap

map <F7> :setlocal spell spelllang=en_us<Cr>

map <S-F7> :set nospell<Cr>

map <F5> a<C-R>=strftime("%b %d, %Y - %H:%M ")<CR><Esc>

" soft breaks

:set wrap linebreak nolist

" Remove all hard Breaks

:g/^\s*\n.*\S/+norm vipJ 1

GIT

Making lazygit a function instead of an alias allows you to pass it an argument. I have added the following to my .bashrc (or .bash_profile if Mac):

bash

function lazygit() {

git add .

git commit -a -m "$1"

git push

}

This allows you to provide a commit message, such as

lazygit "My commit msg"

REPLACE Newline return

Use \r instead of \n.

Substituting by \n inserts a null character into the text. To get a newline, use \r. When searching for a newline, you’d still use \n, however. This asymmetry is due to the fact that \n and \r do slightly different things:

\n matches an end of line (newline), whereas \r matches a carriage return. On the other hand, in substitutions \n inserts a null character whereas \r inserts a newline (more precisely, it’s treated as the input CR). Here’s a small, non-interactive example to illustrate this, using the Vim command line feature (in other words, you can copy and paste the following into a terminal to run it). xxd shows a hexdump of the resulting file.
