Here is the _vimrc I use on a 5.x version of vim. I agree that
it is best to just not put tabs into the code, and just use
spaces.
Note that the
compile error stuff does not work any more. I am not sure if it
was a new ant version or a new jvm version that broke it. If anyone
has a good setting for the following 2 I would appreciate it:
makeprg
errorformat

I'm having trouble getting my editor set up properly

Can somebody send me the commonly-accepted Derby source
code tab-and-spacing conventions?
I'm using VIM, so ideally if somebody could point me at
a .vimrc that set things up "the right way"...
thanks,

P.S. Here's what I currently use; it intentionally avoids
putting hard tabs into the code because I've found they
don't work as well as spaces.
