Hello,
   I've started to use gVim in place of Notepad++ on my   Windows 7 machine (something I prefer since I use vim on my Ubuntu   box).  However, I'm running into 2 particular issues that are quite   annoying.
  
1 - When I try to modify JavaScript and I write the function, the   editor automatically inserts a tab (8 spaces) before the existing spaces   and somehow after I delete the tab, it also seems to have deleted 2   spaces on top of that!  I like code high-lighting, makes code readable,   but generally I hate any sort of auto-indentation (a preference -- or   lack of a preference? -- that spans all existing browsers and now just   in VI).  How do I turn of _all_ auto-indentation and just have me worry   about that stuff?
  
2 - Say I'm modifying multiple files.  The "buffers" feature makes   it much easier to have multiple files in a single window and then switch   between them.  This keeps my desktop sane by having just one window to   look at.  However, when I'm finished with a particular file (or it was   modified by one of my apps and I don't care about it any more) I would   like to do :close and just be done with it.  But... that buffer does not   "close".  What am I doing wrong and what is the purpose of :close?        --
