Nothing changed, Esc then up arrow gives strange results.
Is this in vim or gvim?
I suspect it's (non-g)vim and it's receiving an ANSI escape
sequence for the arrow keys. So you'll need to tweak the
'timeoutlen' setting to be more than the time it takes you to hit
<esc><esc>, but less than the time it takes you to hit<esc><arrow>.
Yes, it is vim, not gvim. I know about timeoutlen, but I hoped that
there is better soultion.
the problem is that in the <esc><left> sequence, terminal Vim
sees "<esc><esc>[D", so the "<esc><esc>" mapping gets triggered
with the side-effect of issuing "[D" (a backwards jump and then a
delete-the-rest-of-the-line). So to distinguish them, you need
to tell how much time goes between the "<esc><esc>" and the
"<esc><left>" which is done via 'timeoutlen'. I'd just reach for
another key rather than messing with <esc><esc>.
Personally, I tend to add the functionality to control+L which
does a refresh anyways:
:nnoremap <C-L> :noh<cr><C-L>
You might have better results in gvim (I don't know whether it
gets actual key-codes, or they're translated into ANSI escape
sequences).
I do not use gvim, so can't check.
if you don't have it or use it, the issue is somewhat moot there. :-)
