There are a lot of options you might want to take a look at, for example
check out:

:help 'expandtab
:help 'shiftwidth
:help 'tabstop
:help 'cindent

And once you're happy with a particular setting add it to your .vimrc
file so that it will be preserved. Mine is below, not a particularly
complicated one, but it should give you a good idea of what you can do.

Andrew.
