Hi all, I've searched thoroughly for a solution to the following problem but I could not find a straightforward way to actually solve it.
I'm using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 on a MacBook Air 4.2. In the terminal (Terminal.app) I can easily go one word forward/backward using the key combo Alt+Right/Left arrow. This does not work in vim. Alt+Left actually goes one word backward but switches to command mode if I'm in insert mode. Alt+Right just switches from insert to command but does not seem to have any other effect. Other key combos i.e.: Fn+Up/Down=one page up/down; Fn+Left/Right = go to beginning/end of the line, work correctly both in insert and command mode. Is there an easy way to solve this? BTW, On my linux workstation I can easily step through words both in the terminal and in vim with Ctrl+Left/Right. Thank you in advance for your help, w. -- View this message in context: http://vim.1045645.n5.nabble.com/Key-combination-to-go-one-word-back-forward-in-all-modes-on-macbook-air-tp5711940.html Sent from the Vim - Mac mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
