I have been using vim since version 4, and never had this problem before.

I have always (in VI before vim and thereafter) used the following to
exchange the use of the g and G keys in my .vimrc file.

        :noremap g G
        :noremap G g

Now that I've updated to 7.0, this no longer works. It is hard to retrain
my fingers after 20 years. Help!

How does it no longer work? Please provide more info; perhaps an
example.

Gerald:

Previously, if I wanted to move to line 26, I would just type

        26 g

Now I have to type

        26 gg

Previously, to get to the last line, I would only have to type

        g

Now I have to type

        gg

And G seems to have no function at all.

Now I remember. There was a discussion some time ago on vim@vim.org
about this. Read all about it at:
