Could you give more details about 1) and 2)? Vim doesn't automatically translate ~+a or '+o to other characters. You can enter those use ctrl-k ~ a or ctrl-k ' o. > 3) In Vi, the cursor keys do not work and exit the Insert mode. However, > the cursor keys work as expected in Vim and Gvim. This is as intended. vi invokes Vim in vi-compatible mode (:help 'compatible') which doesn't understand using the cursor keys.
