This plugin simply provides the formatting settings necessary to adhere to the Linux Kernel coding standards, available here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/CodingStyle

Drop the plugin into your Pathogen bundle/ directory, or your personal scripts directory. Simple!

To prevent these settings from overwriting your personal settings for C and C++ files, they will not be auto-applied to the files you open. You must invoke the appropriate 'SetLinuxFormatting' command to apply them. Also, changes will only take place in your local buffer - they are not global settings, and there is no way to apply them to all buffers at once, for now.

An example of mapping applying the settings using the command key:

nnoremap <silent> <leader>k :SetLinuxFormatting<cr><cr>

Happy hacking =)
