 ** VIM **

 There exist a couple of plugins and settings for the VIM editor to aid python
 development. If you only develop in Python, a good start is to set the default
 settings for indentation and linewrapping to values compliant with PEP8::

    set textwidth=79
    set shiftwidth=4
    set tabstop=4
    set expandtab
    set softtabstop=4
    set shiftround

 With these settings newlines are inserted after 79  characters and indentation
 is set to 4 spaces per tab. If you also use VIM for other languages, there is a
 handy plugin at indent_, which handles indentation settings for python source
 files.
 Additionally there is also a handy syntax plugin at syntax_ featuring some
 improvements over the syntax file included in VIM 6.1.

 These plugins supply you with a basic environment for developing in Python.
 However in order to improve the programming flow we also want to continually
 check for PEP8 compliance and check syntax. Luckily there exist PEP8_ and
 Pyflakes_ to do this for you. If your VIM is compiled with `+python` you can
 also utilize some very handy plugins to do these checks from within the editor.
 For PEP8 checking install vim-pep8_. Now you can map the vim function
 `Pep8()` to any hotkey or action you want. Similarly for pyflakes you can
 install vim-pyflakes_. Now you can map `Pyflakes()` like the PEP8 function and
 have it called quickly. Both plugins will display errors in a quickfix list and
 provide an easy way to jump to the corresponding line. A very handy setting is
 calling these functions whenever a buffer is saved. In order to do this, enter
 the following lines into your vimrc::

    autocmd BufWritePost *.py call Pyflakes()
    autocmd BufWritePost *.py call Pep8()
