If you use CapsLock often, you might want to read this: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Insert-mode_only_Caps_Lock I have CapsLock and Esc swapped, but I do use CapsLock when typing SQL into code that someone else may maintain. I have a bit KDE widget that lights up whenever CapsLock is on, for the simple reason that I never look at my keyboard. -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
