Tony, Britton didn't ask for a user workaround, but for how to prevent the
problem as a script writer?!
Britton,
It's hard to help without knowing what's behind your <Plug>IsymchooseComplete
mapping. Usually, insert-mode mappings begin with <C-O> to :call a custom
function and immediately go back to insert mode:
CTRL-O execute one command, return to Insert mode *i_CTRL-O*
as in e.g.:
inoremap <Plug>IsymchooseComplete <C-o>:set
completefunc=<SID>IsymchooseComplete<CR><C-x><C-u>
This should work for you, too, so you don't need to use feedkeys(). If your
mapping implements a custom completion, also see :help complete-functions for
more information on how to implement them.
