Yes, they can. I'm not sure what exact mapping is interfering. If you think you've found the mapping, try (for example): :verbose map  :verbose map!  This should tell you any existing mappings starting with 'Â' and also what file defined them. Then it should be pretty easy to remove from that file. I don't actually think Vim will properly process an ALT+Number keycode though, if that's what your autohotkeys script is sending, unless you define your own mapping for it. Try it manually. If it doesn't work, then something like: :inoremap <A-1><A-2><A-3><A-4> TextToInsert should work, but it will require a mapping for every such key sequence. It sounds like autohotkey is sending an Alt+Space keysequence to Vim, and naturally Vim responds by brining up the menu as if you had manually typed Alt+Space explicitly. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
