Question

I’ve setup a colorcolumn=80, but I found I can not wrap long lines in ~/.vimrc.

Is there any method like C’s \ to concatenate?

For example I tried this, but it does not work.

autocmd FileType python setlocal ai si et sta sw=4 \
textwidth=80 backspace=indent,eol,start fo=croql

Lines in the .vimrc file can be wrapped by putting the escaping \ at the beginning of the continuation line:

autocmd FileType python
    \ setlocal ai si et sta sw=4
    \ textwidth=80 backspace=indent,eol,start fo=croql

See :h line-continuation
