1. I can confirm the crash, slightly simplified:
fun! DIT()
if pumvisible()
execute "normal! i\<C-Y>"
endif
return ""
endfun
imap <c-right> <C-R>=DIT()<CR>
With the completion menu open, I type <C-Right><C-X><C-O> and gvim
crashes. I get the same thing typing <C-R>=DIT()<CR> instead of using
the mapping.
2. I think that what you want is something more along these lines:
fun! DIT2()
if pumvisible()
return "\<C-Y>"
else
return ""
endif
endfun
imap <F4> <C-R>=DIT2()<CR>
