Hm. In my gvim 7.2.68, when 'whichwrap' includes "h,l", hitting the h
key repeatedly moves from the start of one line to the end of the
previous one, but even when it includes "<,>", it doesn't when using
<Left> (neither in Normal nor Insert modes). OTOH, with <Right> and > it
works.
This looks like a bug to me. (Bram, what do you think?)
I checked that gvim correctly sees my left-arrow key: in Insert mode,
Ctrl-K followed by left-arrow inserts <Left> into the buffer.

Here, I use the following
map <Up> gk
map <Down> gj
imap <Up> <C-O>gk
imap <Down> <C-O>gj
to have <Up> and <Down> move by screen lines in both Normal and Insert
modes. In Normal mode, j and k still move by file lines.
See
:help map-overview
:help gj
:help gk
:help i_CTRL-O
Best regards,
Tony.
