Vim: how to insert a character like '\' automatically when auto wrap a line?
Suppose I :set tw=5, when wrapping the following 'long' line:
a = b + c
It becomes:
a = b
+ c
Yet I want it to be:
a = b \
+ c
Or even better if a smart indent is inserted on the next line, like this:
a = b \
+ c
How do I do that?
