When I put in my .vimrc file:
“set backspace =2;
set nocompatible;
syntax on;”
It works fine and uses these settings when I open a new vim file however I get the error message:
Error detected while processing /mount/autofs/home_stude1/a/afarah/.vimrc:
line 1:
E474: Invalid argument: backspace =2;
line 2:
E488: Trailing characters: nocompatible;
probably trivial, but not sure how to fix it.
Use the following instead.
Vim’s script syntax does not use semicolons AFAIK.
