Re: VIM Enhancement (intendation)

Hi Carl,
There is an emacs lisp script that, among other things, indents NCL-scripts at,

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Files/ncl.el,

You can use it from vim by running emacs batch-mode as an external command. In my setup I run ':!indentfile %' where indentfile is,

$ cat ~/bin/indentfile
#!/bin/bash
 emacs -batch $1 -l ~/bin/emacs-format-file -l ~/.emacs.d/ncl.el -f emacs-format-function-ncl

and

$cat ~/bin/emacs-format-file
(defun emacs-format-function-ncl ()
   "Format the whole buffer."
    (ncl-mode)
   (indent-region (point-min) (point-max) nil)
   (untabify (point-min) (point-max))
   (save-buffer)
)

If anyone has a native vim solution I'd be interested as well...
/Martin
