Vimers,
I set my mapleader to comma (,). Although I do not have any
insert-mode maps starting
with comma, whenever I type "," in insert mode, it still waits for a
while (the value of
timeoutlen).
Is there any way to "disable" the mapleader in insert mode so that vim
will be more
responsive when I type the mapleader?
The mapleader value is used when the mapping is _defined_ not invoked.
Check your mappings:
:map!
Don't forget the exclamation mark. Are you sure you don't see any mapping
there with an initial comma?
Also
:echo hasmapto(',', 'i')
The answer should be zero if you have no insert-mode mapping to anything that
includes a comma, one if you do.
Note that you can type the next character after the comma (usually a space)
regardless of whether you already see the comma displayed in Vim. If
comma-space is not mapped, typing them will make both bytes appear in the buffer.
You may try the following, but I don't think it will work:
autocmd InsertEnter * let mapleader = ""
autocmd InsertLeave * let mapleader = ","
Best regards,
Tony.
