I find that when I am writing C or AWK code, VIM moves my cursor left
and right at various points to implement its idea of proper formatting.
Obviously, these ideas don't mesh with my ideas - I am perfectly capable
of formatting my own code, thankyouverymuch.
How to turn this "feature" off?
Note: I like VIM's syntax highlighting; just don't like it moving the
cursor back and forth. |

We have a winner!
I put: filetype indent off
in my .vimrc and now things are right again.
Thank you! |

I see that you are happy just by turning it off, but I would point out that
the automatic indentation is quite configurable. You might be happier if
you were to configure the indenting to match your own preferred style. It
does save typing.
