Possible Duplicate:
How to paste source code to vim without error format?

In Vim, When I paste a text like this:

line1
line2
line3

It will be converted to:

line1
  line2
    line3

This usually happens when I copy a text from the web. How do I paste text as it is?

    Use :set paste to enable Paste mode. Then you can paste as much as you want without vim trying to autoindent it. When you are done, remember to disable Paste mode using :set nopaste.
