Hi,
I'm running vim in a console using gnome-terminal. I put these
mappings in my .vimrc file:
map <c-q> :mksession! ~/.vim/.session <cr>
map <c-s> :source ~/.vim/.session <cr>
Pressing those buttons (CTRL+Q or CTRL+S) doesn't work. When I map as
below instead:
map <F9> :mksession! ~/.vim/.session <cr>
map <F10> :source ~/.vim/.session <cr>
the commands work.
What is causing this behavior? Is it the terminal capturing the CTRL+Q
and CTRL+S keystrokes before they reach VIM?
Yes. You can try kde konsole. In konsole, ^Q and ^S and not
treated specially by default. You can remap them in vim.
Your terminal emulator, if it has menus, then the option that affects
^Q and ^S will be named something like "flow control" or XON/XOFF.
