how to enable backspace in vim permanently
 
I enabled backspace in vim by "set backspace=eol,start" and it worked. But if I close the window and open up another one, the backspace is automatically disabled again. Is there a way to enable backspace once and for all?

Err.... Perhaps you could put the command in /home/me/.vimrc?
