Re: Mapping to the numerical - and + and *
Thanks all. I got it working what I wanted by copying the mswin.vim file and stripping it to what I wanted. When you don't understand vim-scripting as I do then good copying is beter then bad designing .

* Eric Leenman [2007.03.01 13:30]: How were you planning to use those? I want to use these as cut, paste and copy iso CTRL-X, V and C. Cutting and copying are compound operations in the sense that you need to specify /what/ they are going to act on. There are many ways to do this, depending on the mode you are in. I now got :vnoremap kPlus +p :vnoremap kMinus +d :vnoremap kMultiply +y This looks fine. What you want to act on is implicitly the visual selection. :noremap kPlus +p This is fine. :noremap kMinus +d :noremap kMultiply +y Here you will need to specify *what* you want to cut or paste with a motion command after you have pressed kMinus of kMultiply. :inoremap kMinus +d :inoremap kMultiply +y These are insert-mode mappings. So of course you get +d in your text. This is exactly what you told vim to do. What do you *mean* when you are in insert mode and want to cut or copy? Copy what? One possibility is to revert to normal mode and follow the command with a motion: :inoremap kMinus C-O+d :inoremap kPlus C-O+p :inoremap kPlus +p This is meaningful but the syntax is incorrect. Tony gave you the answer for this one. I tried the help CTRL-R but I don't follow that. It would help if were more explicit about the parts you don't understand. In normal mode, pressing +p means: 'put the content of register + after the cursor'. In insert mode, pressing +p means: 'insert then + then p'. It has nothing whatsoever to do with registers. This is where CTRL-R helps you. CTRL-R+ is the insert-mode equivalent of +p in normal-mode. -- JR
Mapping to the numerical - and + and *
Hi, Is it possible to map the - and + and * keys on the nummerical section of a keyboard (in other words the keys in the group where the num-lock key is also) to functioan as cut, paste and copy? If so, how do you this? Rgds, Eric _ Refi Now: Rates near 39yr lows! $430,000 Mortgage for $1,399/mo - Calculate new payment http://www.lowermybills.com/lre/index.jsp?sourceid=lmb-9632-17727moid=7581

Rgds, Eric See :help keypad-home and what comes after. :vnoremap kMinus+d :noremap kPlus +p :inoremap kPlus C-R+ :vnoremap kMultiply +y The above works for + (delete/cut) and * (yank/copy) in Visual mode, for - (put/paste) in Normal and Insert mode -- if I didn't goof. All of them use the clipboard, which is useful to copy between Vim and a different app, not so useful to copy within a single instance of Vim (where you may prefer to use just d, p and y in Normal or Visual mode).

* Eric Leenman [2007.02.28 08:00]: Is it possible to map the - and + and * keys on the nummerical section of a keyboard (in other words the keys in the group where the num-lock key is also) That part of the keyboard is sometimes referred to as the keypad. You can refer to those keys in vim with the following (from :h key-notation, near the end of the table): notationmeaning equivalent decimal value(s)~ --- [...] kPlus keypad +*keypad-plus* kMinuskeypad -*keypad-minus* kMultiply keypad **keypad-multiply* to functioan as cut, paste and copy? In vim, delete always saves the deleted data somewhere. So in that sense, it's equivalent to cut, as long as you know where vim put the stuff. The other operations are referred to in vim's documentation as put, and yank. These operations usually require more than one keystroke. How were you planning to use those? -- JR
