Some tips for configuring Vim for RAMCloud.
If you don't know what these do, see Vim's help pages.
If you need help, ask Diego.

Comments

Automatically add the asterisk when you hit enter inside a Doxygen comment
```
formatoptions+=ro
```
Enable the doxygen plugin to highlight inside Doxygen comments
```
" before syntax on:
let g:load_doxygen_syntax=1
```

Whitespace/Indenting

4-spaces, no tabs
```
set et ts=4 sw=4
```
some more sanity
```
set smarttab cindent cin0=(0
```
make trailing whitespace stand out
- You could do this, but it's annoying while you're typing:
```
syntax match Error "\s\+$"
syntax match Error "\t"
```
- This can be configured to be less intrusive:
```
set list
```
