" Line numbers
" I use the combination of absolute and relative line numbers. On the
" current line, it shows the absolute; on all the others, the relative.

" Splits
" I prefer the logic of 'open your main window first, and all other
" afterwards', so this makes a new file open below or to the right of the
" current one.

" Indentation
" I only use four spaces as indentation. This configures Vim to always use four
" spaces, for both manual tabs and automatic indentation.
