No, vim does not shift either. I was under the impression that there is
no need to justify sentences that way. As long as lines are under 72
characters I am quite alright.
If you remove something in the middle, it is going to be less than 72
characters anyway.
If you want to justify/fill correctly, then you end up using fmt at the end.
I have a problem with using post processing tools. I want everything to
happen on the fly.
I just checked out the 'wl=72' stuff in vi. Works exactly like 'tw' in
vim. I then did an fmt in the end. The result looks much better
of course. But there is a problem. The quoting gets goofed up. One has
to do it with little more care I guess.
Looks like I misunderstood then.

I don't get you. You mean 'd' and '{'?
Doesn't work for me.
Perhaps I misunderstood? I want to delete everything from current line
till end of file. In vi, it corresponds to
:,$d
