I use MacVim for a variety of text files and I have "format options"
activated. This rearranges paragraphs on the fly during editing.
Unfortunately since 7.3 a bug or a new behavior has been added. When I
go into insert mode on any but the first line of a paragraph, MacVim
inserts only one character where I want, and then it indexes 8
characters ahead in the line for each additional insertion.

For example, adding the word "Now" to the beginning of this text:

is the time for all good men to come to the aid of...

Produces the following result:

*N*is the t*o*ime for *w*all good men to come to the aid of...

Note, the asterisks are there to make it clear how the word "Now" got
folded into the text.

Any help would be appreciated. I've only been using Vim as my main
editor for about a year, so I hope this isn't some simple option or
setting I missed. But at this point I'm pretty sure something is wonky
with 7.3. Until this update I have never had this issue.

Thanks,

Edward
