I'd like to create a new shortcut key of `F4` to send Esc to vim but
Ctrl-space to xterm, gnome-terminal instead of vim.
Seems the command `imap <F4> <Esc> :call feedkeys("\<C-Space>")<CR>` does
not send Ctrl-Space.
Do you have any ideas?
I also tried the two commands:
nmap <silent> <F4> :!ibus engine anthy<CR>a
imap <silent> <F5> <Esc>:!ibus engine xkb:us::eng<CR><CR>
They work if I run each command directly in vim buffer. But they do not work
if I save them in vimrc.

See :help CTRL-\_CTRL-G
N.B.
1. You can use a single {lhs} for nmap and imap, Vim won't mix them up.
2. (about the RTFM above) 'insertmode' should only be set in the
so-called "easy Vim" (actually a Notepad look-alike :-P )
Thank you. My {lhs} is <F4> or <F5> which are single keys.
From your reply, I guess I should not add space characters in the command line.
I noticed my vim does not provide `:help CTRL-\_CTRL-G` in Fedora.
And seems vim-minimal package does not provide the full supports of vimrc.
After I installed vim-enhanced package, my vim can work with $HOME/.vimrc of
the following content:
nmap <silent> <F4> :!ibus engine anthy<CR>a
imap <silent> <F5> <Esc>:!ibus engine xkb:us::eng<CR><CR
However feedkeys() still does not work.
imap <F5> <C-\><C-G>:call feedkeys("\<C-Space>")<CR>
When I press F5 key in the insert mode, I'd change the mode to the normal mode
and send Ctrl-space key to xterm or gnome-terminal but not vim.
But the actual result is, <C-/><C-G> or <Esc> works but feedkeys() does not
forward Ctrl-space to my input method.
Do you have any ideas?
Best regards,
Tony.
