That sounds like you have a plugin which set the virtualedit option, because I don't see this option being set in your .vimrc. If this plugin disables the option during insert actions for some reason, then re-enables it afterwards, interrupting the plugin will cause it to stay off. What does ":verobse set virtualedit?" show you? -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
