how to stop extra line after paren?

[Paul Lam]

Hi, I'm a new vim user. How do I stop the following behaviour?

(def a (b c)|) 

<press enter>

(def a (b c)

  |

)

I'd like to have

(def a (b c)

  |)

It's the same with surround.vim, it's padding extra space before and after the paren.

Hi,

This is behaviour is not induced by VimClojure. In fact I get here the second behaviour. Did you install something else? eg. paredit?

Kind regards

As Meikel suggests, it looks like you have paredit.vim installed. The
behavior you're seeing is it's "electric return" feature. As you type
closing parens, the extra line-feeds will be removed. It takes some
getting used to, but I kind of like it.

You can turn off this behavior either by removing paredit.vim, or just
disabling it in vimrc:

let g:paredit_mode = 0

Cheers,

Dave

thanks guys! It's indeed paredit's electric return. I turned it off and the closing parens are no longer hanging

let g:paredit_electric_return = 0
