Hi Ingo.
Thank you for a very precise description. I must say there much of interesting
even for ~15 years user of vim like me :-) However, it's quite hard to read,
esp. as a FAQ entry. What about the following, wouldn't it be more readable for
beginners? Even I _know_ it is not the simplest or shortest solution for those
who know all details and special characters:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mapping in normal mode could be executed after Ctrl-O from insert mode as well
but if there are more commands included in the mapping {rhs}, only the first
one will be executed in normal mode and the rest of {rhs} will be printed
literally in insert mode. One of ways to workaround this problem is to make
{rhs} be one command, via wrapping it to the function. For example:
function GetFontNameOfFirstChar()
normal 0
echo getfontname()
endfunction
:nmap <F9> :call GetFontNameOfFirstChar()<CR>
For more solutions of this problem look <a href="Ingo's mail">here</a>.
