Hi All,

Thanks for the response from both of you... Sadly the backslash isn't
working... I'm on a standard QWERTY keyboard in the U.S.... I'm not sure
what the rest of the specs for the keyboard are, but it has the F1-F12
keys and a 'Windows' key on the lower left, as well as ESC, ALT, Ctrl...
Does that help anybody/anything?

Does backslash key work in insert mode in vim ? Does it
work in other applications ? Is it present on the keyboard ?

Indeed. The rare case when backslash represents a backslash :-)

For \ch, for exampe, you need to press 3 keys in quick
sequence: 1. backslash 2. c 3 h.

If you make excessive delays between these keys, mappnig will not
execute. :help ttimeout, :help timeout
