Yes :-).
The simpler way is to map it to single key :-), like <F2> :-)
I'd imagine that typing 11 keys doesn't feel the right
typing-to-effect ratio.
I am already putting this segment in much larger map that does other
things on "a contents. However, the way I currently do it has a
disadvantage that the cursor moves and then it moves back and then the
screen flashes - all for nothing really. "ayaw or "ayiw doesn't work
for me because it changes cursor position. So, I want a simple way to
find the word at the current cursor position.
