You have me wrong there. I am a writer, not a programmer. I use Vim almost exclusively for prose and poetry. For the former, a cursor that lags significantly behind my typing is frustrating because I type as close to the speed of my thoughts as I can. It's very rare that I find myself typing something in which my thought moves slower than my ability to type. *My* process involves handwriting for the slow writing. My point is this: the bluetooth keyboard works EVERYWHERE except with Vim. There's no good reason for that and no good reason it hasn't been examined at all nearly a year after multiple reports. This isn't some obscure accessory! But as long as it is *that* laggy, I won't find it useful. c -- Chris Lott <[email protected]> -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
