inoremapEsc Esc`^
In Mac terminal and Linux urxvt it has side effects for the arrow
keys. The arrow keys up, down, right, left produce A, B, C, D
respectively.
Hmmm, vim keycodes found using ^V:
up ^[OA
down ^[OB
right ^[OC
left ^[OD
Since ^[ is the same asesc
Is the ^[ doingesc`^ as though it were typed?
It seems up arrow is now doing:
^[ Exit insert mode
`^ To position where the cursor was the last time when Insert mode
was stopped
O Begin a new line above the cursor and insert text
A Type the letter A
Is this a bug? Seems inoremap is not working here.
I recommend
:set timeout timeoutlen=5000 ttimeoutlen=100
(or similar), where
- both times are in milliseconds
- 'timeoutlen' should be longer than the longest time between keystrokes
when you're hesitating about which key to type next in a multikey {lhs}
for a mapping
- 'ttimeoutlen' should be shorter than the shortest time between
keystrokes at your fastest typing speed but longer than the (longest)
time between successive bytes sent to you by the keyboard for a single key.
When bytes arrive with a shorter interval between them than
'ttimeoutlen' milliseconds, Vim will then accept them as a multibyte
keycode (if found in the current termcap) in preference to a mapping.
See the corresponding help topics for details.
Best regards,
Tony.

Hi Tony
I tried what you suggested and it had no effect, tried other values,
still get the A, B, C, D.
Also tried with:
vim -N -i NONE -u NONE
Still getting:
The arrow keys up, down, right, left produce A, B, C, D respectively.

Yes, this is a known vim bug that has been reported multiple times -
at least once by me.
