Vim: o and O on indented line provide wrong indent / strip character

Created on 9 Oct 2016 · 10Comments · Source: VSCodeVim/Vim

What did you do?

Given a piece of (python) code with indenting

    # comment _

where _ marks the cursor, pressing O should add a line above and 'o' should add an indented line below

What did you expect to happen?

A line to be added with the proper indent

What happened instead?

Inserting the line above (O) seems to remove a character. The cursor seems to start at column two and then backspace to cursor one. However, the first space I hit seems to be ignored. I have to add 5 spaces in stead of 4 to match my indent below

Inserting below (o) does something similar: The cursor starts initially at the right indent but then jumps back one column

Additionally, when I create a new empty file and hit 'i' to insert, the first two letters I type get swapped.

Perhaps introduced by the fix for issue #574

@iivvoo I am unable to reproduce this...can you provide me a bigger snippet for a complete file that I can use for testing? o and O are behaving as they are supposed to in this file for me

#test
if(True):
  print("test")
  #test
  #test

Regarding your second issue for the new file, and swapping the first two letters...I can't reproduce this either, can you open its own issue? How are you opening a new file
