I'm trying to switch CTRL-C and Escape since CTRL-C is closer but I prefer
Escape for most things. I'm using the noremap command to do this and for some
reason I'm getting strange behavior when starting up Vim. I have the 'showcmd'
option set and I can see that when I start Vim the visual bell goes off (like
when Escape is hit in normal mode) and Vim is in operator-pending mode in the
middle of a 2c command/operation. This all is quite annoying since it deletes 3
lines and starts inserting j's when I try to scroll down.
I've been able to reproduce this problem on both my Macbook's Vim and on my
Windows work computer ssh'ed into a linux box using various ssh clients also
running Vim.
I've been trying to track this down for awhile but this is all I've found out
so far:
- When the mapping is made with the 'compatible' option set this becomes a
non-issue
- On my Macbook I recently mapped the terminal scroll key codes for scroll up
(^[OA) and scroll down (^[OB) to CTRL-Y and CTRL-E respectively. When at least
one of these mappings in uncommented in my .vimrc this again becomes a non-issue
I'm using Vim 7.3 on my Macbook, not sure the version on my work computer but I
think it's 7.4.
All that needs to be in my .vimrc for this mishap to happen is the Escape
mapping itself:
noremap <Esc> <C-c>
