Re: Changing vim defaults for editing Go files

You don't mention if you are using the vim-go plugin:

You might want to give it a try.

With regards about vim formatting your Go source this way or that,
it's somewhat moot because you have to run your source through the Go
formatter before you can run/build it.

When I write Go with vim, I generally don't worry too much what it
looks like; as long as it's legible and then just let 'gofmt' do it's
stuff.
