Hello Tony et al.,
How are you? Thank you very much for your help. I’m sorry for a delay in my
reply. It has been a busy week! I have just tried your suggestions. I have
placed the cursor highlight settings into my ~/.vimrc by they don’t appear to
have any effect. The colour of the cursor doesn’t change neither in Latin nor
in Russian setting.
I have checked the mappings and have something to report back to you.
> :verbose map! .
Produces:
*@<C-R>=<SNR>43_SmartDots()<CR>
Last set from ~/Dropbox/unix/.vim/ftplugin/latex-suite/main.vim line 865
i . * <C-R>=<SNR>22_LookupCharacter(".")<CR>
Last set from ~/Dropbox/unix/.vim/plugin/imaps.vim line 184
> :verbose lmap .
Results in:
l . *@ю
Last set from /usr/share/vim/vim82/keymap/russian-jcukenmac.vim line 95
All in all it is working now. I figured out my mistake. The conflict was indeed
the vim-LaTeX and the Russian keymap settings. I have asked this question on
Vim StackExchange (https://tinyurl.com/y9sg3caz). The order of loading
vim-LaTeX and Russian keymap was incorrect. To solve the issue I’m loading the
Russian keymap first and setting the vim-LaTeX options the last. Thank you for
your help and have a good Sunday!
