VIM Configuration

Recently , I installed Ubuntu on a computer in the lab.
It's been a long time to handle linux configuration files for me.
When I use VI, my favorite text editor, I encountered unusual
VI environment where I can't use cursor keys to move around
the editor. Moreover there's no auto highlighting on syntax
and no auto indentation.

Yes, I needed to configure VIM and I did !
Followings are what I did for make them work in VIM.

1. Make cursor keys work !

• First, download vim-full !
• Type ' set nocp ' in command mode of VIM for temporal or in vimrc ( .vimrc for users ) file for permanent setting
  

2. Auto indentation

• Insert ' set autoindent ' line in vimrc file
  

3. Auto highlighting

• Insert ' syntax on ' line in vimrc file
  

4. Etc.

• Rather than what I described above, there are more configuration you can change in configuration file (vimrc file ).
• Each user can define own configuration file with .vimrc at the home directory
