What is in your vimrc?
dragonquest: I keep a very simple vimrc file with minimal customization. Note however that I'm a beginner with Vim, so my customizations end with what "just works" with minimum pain for me.  set nobackup
  set clipboard=unnamed
  set number
  set tabstop=4
  set shiftwidth=4
  set expandtab
  colorscheme oceandeep
