Nikolai,
It is a matter of preference, not a malfeature. It would take months of
retraining for me to adapt if the cursor was 'fixed' so that it does not jump
back upon leaving insert mode, not to mention the large number of functions and
mappings I would need to adapt also. Personally, I like the cursor moving
backwards, and it makes things more consistent when you exit insert-mode at the
end of a line (where the cursor can only move backwards).
However, in the spirit of free software and software freedom, thank you for
providing the fix for others who also prefer things your way. Have you added a
tip to vim.org?
regards,
Peter
