How can you tell if the mapping works or not?
You can see what a key actually produces with CTRL-V <key> . So when
you type
:imap CTRL-V <key> foo
Where CTRL-V is one key and <key> is the mapped key.
Does the mapping still not work?
When I type
:map! “ -
where the {lhs}, U+201C (double high 6 quote) is produced on my keyboard by
AltGr-v
then,
:map!
list the mapping with “ (the character in question) in the {lhs}, but hitting
AltGr-v in Insert mode inserts “ (the {lhs}) not - (the {rhs}).
Using Ctrl-V before the key when defining the mapping makes no change: hitting
the key still doesn't invoke the mapping, but ":map! “" (again, with or
without Ctrl-V) lists it.
Best regards,
Tony.
