I think he meant :help :map-silent, but I'm not sure if that will do what you are asking. If you use the silent option to define a map, it will not echo the command on execution. But that may not avoid hitting return. Also, do you have to hit return in the existing window or the new window? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
