While I didn't know about this, it sounds like this only applies in Selection mode, not Visual mode. I seem to recall that the OP was talking about Visual mode. >>> What if i've typed a wrong count in Operator-pending mode, like >>> 'd42'? >> >> Since most of the time the command is a single letter, I find >> little overhead in the usual "hit <esc> then re-issue the >> command".

Is there a need for such a key? "gC" perhaps? I don't feel a strong need for it to be added, and one could theoretically just :vnoremap <esc> <esc>gv allowing you to use <esc> with one keypress (and if you wanted to cancel Visual mode, you can still use control+C) -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
