Synopsis

                  se 
                  parameter1 parameter2 ...

Set a value to an option with each parameter, or if no parameter is supplied, print all options that have been changed from their defaults. For Boolean-valued options, each parameter can be phrased as option or no option; other options can be assigned with the syntax option = value. Specify all to list current settings.

Examples

                  set nows wm=10
:set all
