I'm tearing my hair out with this problem. When I try to edit a file, it immediately takes me into "insert mode", and I have to hit escape before I can navigate.
If I remove the line "set nocompatible" from my /etc/vimrc then the problem goes away, but I require compatiblity mode for my autocmd's (ie. remembering positions in files etc) I must be missing a setting which determines what the defaults for "nocompatiblity" does. But I thought the default mode for "nocompatible" was "Normal" ? If so, why is it always going into insert mode ? How do I change it back ? -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
