I am in the middle of line in insert mode and want to break out of the line
and start a new line (above or below)
What I want is effectively
<ESC>o or <ESC>O
But does Vim7 have a native command for this?
I cant imagine such a command being added in Vim7 in some
sort of "native" fashion, given that it's fairly trivial to
map it:
imap <f4> <esc>O
imap <f5> <esc>o
or whatever your favorite key happen to be.
I have a similar set of mappings for the opposite
condition...to insert a line above or below the current one
without going into insert mode (it just boringly does an "o"
or "O" and followed by an <esc>). Not very exciting stuff,
which makes it likely it won't show up as a native sort of
command, when there's a pre-existing means to do it with
minimal fuss.
