In general, to display the value of some option, let's say of 'option',
use one of
:set option?
:setlocal option?
:setglobal option?
(in general the first of them). The question mark is optional for String
or Integer options like 'filetype' here, but in the case of a Boolean
option, using ":set option" with no question mark will set it to TRUE
rather than display the existing value, so IMHO it is good practice to
always use a question mark when querying the current value.
Best regards,
Tony.
