Copy pasting without reformatting in vi
So, vi(m) is a great command line editor if you've started to outgrow nano. But, if you are copy pasting chunks of things into it, sometimes it does some...creative reformatting. You can stop this if you use this command before you do your i (insert letter) and paste:
:set paste
