When I enter insert mode, vim will not allow deleting text behind where I entered insert. Also when I use auto indent, I cannot delete the indentations that get automatically created.
I've tried a blank vimrc and even tried my own version of vim compiled from source. How can I delete properly in vim?
Are you attempting to delete them using backspace? Try :set backspace=indent,eol,start
By default you can't backspace over auto-indentation, previous edits or line breaks.
Try :set nocompatible
