Create a vimrc file (if you use Unix: ~/.vimrc) with the following lines in
it:
syntax on
set autoindent
set smartindent
If you find that using vim is hard, try using evim (easy vim). It is part
of the standard vim distribution (actually it's the same program). Anyway,
I suggest learning the classic modal vim, it's really worth it.
