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.
