Re: delete lines
Zitat von Tim Chase <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: :nnoremap X with this I cannot cross lines (delete $ between line and line coming from line while backspacing and it is not possible to delete the last (or in other words the first char after ^ ) char of a line. Something perhaps like :nnoremap i might do the trick. One edge-case I found with this one is if you're on a blank line and use backspace, you delete the backspace, but end up on the last character of the previous line, thus if you have abcd X with the cursor on the "X", and hit backspace, you end up on top of the "d" on the previous line (rather than "after" it). Thus, hitting backspace again will leave you with "abd" instead of "abc" as one would normally want. Haven't yet found a good solution to that one. -tim hi, you may try my script: cr-bs-del-space-tab.vim http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1579 it will enable Return,Backspace,Del,Space and Tab key in Normal mode. regards jochen

Re: delete lines
is it also possible to enable the backspace key in normal mode -- the delete key is working in normal, so why should I miss the backspace key ? :nnoremap X (all typed literally with greater-than and less-than signs included) should do the trick. -tim

the delete key is working in normal, so why should I miss the
backspace key ?

Try ":set backspace+=eol" -- see ":help 'backspace'".

RE: delete lines
The problem is your setting of backspace. It sounds like currently bs is
equal to "indent,start" or something similar. You need
"indent,start,eol". The easiest way to do this is simply put this in
your .vimrc file:
:set bs=2
That should do it!

Re: delete lines
And then I decide that I want to remove $blah2, so I start to press
backspace from here:
fucntion foo() {
$blah;
$blah2; <- cursor here
}
and then when I get to the beginning of the line, it stops. Can I make
it so that it will follow up to the end of $blah on the previous line?
Sounds like you want to tweak your 'backspace' option.
:set backspace
should tell you what it currently is.
:help 'backspace'
should describe what's available in how backspace behaves with
regards to various conditions.
You likely want to have a line in your vimrc that looks something
like
set backspace=indent,eol,start
that will allow you to backspace over all three categories of
things that might not otherwise be backspace-over-able. :)
