How to paste?

After more than 10 years of using vim I realized I don't know how to
paste text..

The insert mode mapping I have is: x<bs><esc>"+]p

I'm getting really weird results with a snippet I'm pasting from a web
page, using GVim 7.3 (this is the snippet before paste):


def moneyfmt(value, places=2, curr='', sep=',', dp='.',
pos='', neg='-', trailneg=''):
"""Convert Decimal to a money formatted string.

places: required number of places after the decimal point
curr: optional currency symbol before the sign (may be blank)
sep: optional grouping separator (comma, period, space, or blank)
dp: decimal point indicator (comma or period)
only specify as blank when places is zero
pos: optional sign for positive numbers: '+', space or blank
neg: optional sign for negative numbers: '-', '(', space or blank
trailneg:optional trailing minus indicator: '-', ')', space or blank

>>> d = Decimal('-1234567.8901')
>>> moneyfmt(d, curr='$')
'-$1,234,567.89'
>>> moneyfmt(d, places=0, sep='.', dp='', neg='', trailneg='-')
'1.234.568-'
>>> moneyfmt(d, curr='$', neg='(', trailneg=')')
'($1,234,567.89)'
>>> moneyfmt(Decimal(123456789), sep=' ')
'123 456 789.00'
>>> moneyfmt(Decimal('-0.02'), neg='<', trailneg='>')
'<0.02>'

"""
q = Decimal(10) ** -places # 2 places --> '0.01'
sign, digits, exp = value.quantize(q).as_tuple()
result = []
digits = map(str, digits)
build, next = result.append, digits.pop
if sign:
build(trailneg)
for i in range(places):
build(next() if digits else '0')
build(dp)
if not digits:
build('0')
i = 0
while digits:
build(next())
i += 1
if i == 3 and digits:
i = 0
build(sep)
build(curr)
build(neg if sign else pos)
return ''.join(reversed(result))

when I'm pasting at an existing indent of 4 spaces, I get:

def moneyfmt(value, places=2, curr='', sep=',', dp='.',
pos='', neg='-', trailneg=''):

return ''.join(reversed(result))

Why is one indented block preserved near the end while all others are
flattened? If I paste at 0 indent, all indent is flattened.

Seems like 'paste' option doesn't make a difference in gvim except
that it stops my alt-key shortcut from working in insert mode.

How can I do a normal, proper paste at an existing indent with a
keyboard shortcut (i.e. same as what you get with middle mouse button,
so that every line is at an indent I begin with plus whatever indent
is in the copied text)?:
