VI INDENTATION

Indent your lines or remove
the indentation in the vi
editor.

<< Shifts the current line to the left by one shift width.
>> Shifts the current line to the right by one shift width.

You can set the shift width
by command

:set sw

For example, the command to
set the shift width to 4
characters is

:set sw=4.
