Autofmt is a Vim plugin that provides a framework for 'formatexpr,' allowing users to format their text automatically.
For those unfamiliar with Vim, it is a text editor created by Bram Moolenaar in 1991 for the Amiga computer. Vim is an extended version of the vi editor, with additional features designed to aid in editing program source code. Though Vim is cross-platform, it is most commonly used on Unix-like operating systems. The software is free and open source and comes with a software license compatible with the GNU General Public License. Additionally, Vim includes various charityware clauses.
To use Autofmt, it is necessary to have installed Vim. Once Vim is installed, Autofmt can be installed by setting the appropriate runtime path and formatexpr. It is important to note that Autofmt no longer requires the unicode table from compat, further streamlining the software.
Overall, Autofmt is an excellent software package for anyone looking to streamline their code formatting in Vim. With a variety of formatting methods, this plugin and framework are a great tool for any developer.
