Question
I recently read this article related to indenting source files in Vim . However , I would like to be able to custom indent some of them . Is there a way to specify which binary runs when I press = ?
Solution
From the help:
={motion} Filter {motion} lines through the external program given with the 'equalprg' option. When the 'equalprg' option is empty (this is the default), use the internal formatting function |C-indenting|. But when 'indentexpr' is not empty, it will be used instead |indent-expression|.
It looks like setting the equalprg
option is what you want.
OTHER TIPS
You can set the equalprg
-option. (see :he = for more).
