How to turn off auto-indenting in Vim for HTML?

[Steve Litt]

Hi all,

How do I turn off auto-indent in Vim for my HTML files? I prefer to
flush left everything and create blank lines at transitions.

Thanks,

SteveT

Maybe setl noautoindent / setl noai will do?

Add a file: ~/.vim/indent/html.vim containing:

let b:did_indent = 1
set noautoindent

I think that should be

let b:did_indent = 1

setlocal noautoindent
let b:undo_indent = "setlocal autoindent<"

In that way, any non-html buffers created during that Vim session
will have the global 'autoindent' setting.
