Ruby coding in Vim

Question

I copied the Ruby example in Vim, but it turned out that it messed up the indent. I tried to get Vim to apply a specific Ruby indent. To do this, I uncommented the following lines in the global vimrc file:

if has ("autocmd") filetype plugin indent on endif 

And pressed gg=G in Vim. Now it changes part of the indentation, but it still has some errors:

• Class definitions are indented.
• Comments are not indented and remain at the beginning of lines.

Before pasting from an external source, use this command

:set paste

then enter insert mode and paste.
