Child-friendly pasting in vim

If you've got various indenting and text wrapping options turned on in vim, pasting text into the editor results in screwed up results. You can get around this by turning on paste mode using :set paste and off with :set nopaste. To make things a little easier, you can use the following snippet in your .vimrc to allow you to toggle paste on and off using a single keypress:

nmap <F4> :set invpaste paste?<CR>
imap <F4> <C-O>:set invpaste<CR>
set pastetoggle=<F4>

(Warning: my vim settings have organically grown over the last 10 years, so they may not be the best or modern way of achieving an effect.)
