thanks for the reply. it didn't quite work, but it lead me in the right direction to getting it working. here's what i did:
[cjb@semaphore cjb]$ cat .vimrc
set background=dark
syntax on
set number
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set nohls
set ic
filetype indent on
now it seems to be working well...=)
thanks for all the help,
