Long list items don't indent on wrap.

[andrew-vant]

If I have a markdown list with items longer than two lines, lines past the second don't autowrap correctly. e.g.:

1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
2. consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod
3. tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim  # OK
   ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris   # OK
nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure        # Wrong, not indented
dolor in reprehenderit in.                                      # Still wrong
4.  voluptate velit esse cillum dolore.
5. ...and so on

I'm not entirely sure this is a bug rather than interference from something else in my vim config, but I couldn't find anything obvious to cause it.

I've been experiencing this for quite a while, but always just Vjjjj>> and manually shove the lines over afterward. My .vimrc is pretty straightforward, so I'm pretty sure this behavior is from vim-markdown.

Any possible fix in the near future? This is quite frustrating, since I come across a lot of these, these days.

I am also experiencing this.

It's just 'formatoptions'. The problem is that fixing one behavior tends to break another.

[jgrar]

@tpope You are correct. I fixed it with se fo-=2 ai just now.

The indentexpr function used in indent/rst.vim in upstream Vim seems to address this issue.

Skipping the " Indent :FIELD: lines. portion of GetRSTIndent that is unnecessary for Markdown, that function looks like it should work as-is for Markdown as well (except for the current footnote reference support).

This issue can be fixed with set autoindent in a vimrc file.

Note that the list continuation behavior is provided by the n option of formatoptions. If you check the formatoptions documentation with :h fo-table, you'll see next to n: "Note that 'autoindent' must be set too." My guess is that the n option only does anything special when going from the first item of a list option to the second, and then relies on autoindent to keep the indentation level consistent past that.

It might be reasonable for this plugin to set autoindent.
