SUMMARY                                         *sleuth*

This plugin automatically adjusts 'shiftwidth' and 'expandtab' heuristically
based on the current file, or, in the case the current file is new, blank, or
otherwise insufficient, by looking at other files of the same type in the
current and parent directories.  In lieu of adjusting 'softtabstop',
'smarttab' is enabled.

                                                *:Sleuth*
:Sleuth                 Manually detect indentation.

                                                *SleuthIndicator()*
SleuthIndicator()       Indicator for inclusion in 'statusline'.  Or use
                        flagship.vim to have it included automatically.

SETTINGS                                     *sleuth-settings*
