hi, i've just got a new macbookpro with macosx-10.6.3 and have noticed that when running vim in an xterm (even via ssh onto a remote machine), the left and right arrow keys behave like shift left and right arrow keys moving a word at a time instead of a character at a time. i keep having to get out of insert mode to use the h and l keys.
has anyone else seen this behaviour or know what might be causing it? it's probably a terminfo thing but the arrow keys work fine in the shell. i've only seen this behaviour in vim (i.e. not in nano). the versions of vim i'm using range from 7.0.122 to 7.2.436. when i type <Ctrl-V><Left> and <Ctrl-V><Right> i get the expected strings (i.e. "<Esc>OD" and "<Esc>OC", respectively) cheers, raf -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
