41.12 Writing a filetype plugin

"
If you do want to use the default plugin, but overrule one of the
settings,
you can write the different setting in a script: >

setlocal textwidth=70

Now write this in the "after" directory, so that it gets sourced after the
distributed "vim.vim" ftplugin after-directory. For Unix this would be
"~/.vim/after/ftplugin/vim.vim".
