What are your 'cpoptions' set to? Most importantly, do they contain "x"? As detailed at :help c_<esc> :help cpo-x either the use of <esc> in a macro, or if "x" is present in 'cpoptions', it will treat it as an "execute this". It's not a default, so I'd suspect that you've manually set it somewhere in your vimrc chain. Additionally, using control+Q can sometimes be intercepted as one of a terminal's flow-control pairings (usually control+S stops flow, control+Q resumes flow), so in some environments, Vim may never see the control+Q. -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
