<para>The <parameter>set nocompatible</parameter> setting makes
<command>vim</command> behave in a more useful way (the default) than
the vi-compatible manner. Remove the <quote>no</quote> to keep the
old <command>vi</command> behavior. The <parameter>set
backspace=2</parameter> setting allows backspacing over line breaks,
autoindents, and the start of insert. The <parameter>syntax
on</parameter> parameter enables vim's syntax highlighting. Finally,
the <emphasis>if</emphasis> statement with the <parameter>set
background=dark</parameter> setting corrects <command>vim</command>'s
guess about the background color of some terminal emulators. This
gives the highlighting a better color scheme for use on the black
background of these programs.</para>
