this won't work if you give a count, e.g. "3<C-J>", because the count is only applied to the first command in the mapping. Better define the mappings like vnoremap <expr> <c-j> 'jo'.v:count1.'jo' vnoremap <expr> <c-k> 'ko'.v:count1.'ko' or vnoremap <c-j> @='jojo'<cr> vnoremap <c-k> @='koko'<cr> Regards, Jürgen -- Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.
