        Use a swapfile for the buffer.  This option can be reset when a
        swapfile is not wanted for a specific buffer.  For example, with
        confidential information that even root must not be able to access.
        Careful: All text will be in memory:
          - Don't use this for big files.
          - Recovery will be impossible!
        A swapfile will only be present when |'updatecount'| is non-zero and
        'swapfile' is set.
        When 'swapfile' is reset, the swap file for the current buffer is
        immediately deleted.  When 'swapfile' is set, and 'updatecount' is
        non-zero, a swap file is immediately created.

        Maximum column in which to search for syntax items.  In long lines the
        text after this column is not highlighted and following lines may not
        be highlighted correctly, because the syntax state is cleared.
        This helps to avoid very slow redrawing for an XML file that is one
        long line.

        the |:retab| command, and the 'softtabstop' option.

        Note: Setting 'tabstop' to any other value than 8 can make your file
        appear wrong in many places.

        broken after white space to get this width.  A zero value disables
        this.
        When 'textwidth' is zero, 'wrapmargin' may be used.  See also

        When on, Vim automatically saves undo history to an undo file when

        file on buffer read.
        The directory where the undo file is stored is specified by 'undodir'.
        For more information about this feature see |undo-persistence|.
        The undo file is not read when 'undoreload' causes the buffer from
        before a reload to be saved for undo.
        When 'undofile' is turned off the undo file is NOT deleted.

        A list of the number of spaces that a <Tab> counts for while editing,

        width <Tab>s are being inserted, while in fact a mixture of spaces
        and <Tab>s is used.  Tab widths are separated with commas, with the
        final value applying to all subsequent tabs.

        Number of characters from the right window border where wrapping

        and inserting continues on the next line.
        Options that add a margin, such as 'number' and 'foldcolumn', cause
        the text width to be further reduced.
