Hi,

I would like to know if there is an easy way to fix the placement of { } 
brackets in vim
so that they fall two or three spaces intented. For example in a C++ file I'm 
currently
working on, I have:

if (pExample != NULL)
{
    // code here
}

What I would like is to have the brackets indented from the edge of the page 2 
or 3
spaces.  Such as:

if (pExample != NULL)
  {
    // code here
  }

Any ideas as to how I can achieve this?

You can add the "{N" flag to the 'cinoptions'  to do this:

   :set cinoptions+={2

For more information about this, read
