suggestion: {count}<C-G> is so useful, are you sure you want to disabled it?

[sk1418]

clicked your vimrc from stackoverflow (the autocmd CmdWinEnter Q), just saw one line: https://github.com/Marslo/VimConfig/blob/master/Configurations/vimrc#L363

is very useful (to me), you want to disable it?

:h ctrl-g

[marslo]

Hi @sk1418, thanks very much for your suggestion! I'm very glad someone can discuess vim-skills with me. :+1:

I'm pretty longly of using vim in my real life. :(

---

Well, for your suggestion, I'm tried the Ctrl+g

1. ctrl+g in the normal mode: print the simple file information. I've using my statusline instead.
2. About (visual)g + ctrl+g, I think this function pretty cool
3. About ctrl+g + j/k in insert mode, that useful too, :)

By the way, the <C-g> has been mapped as <A-g> to open MRU. Have you used MRU?

Here my statusline:

[sk1418]

Okay, It was just a suggestion, if you find your comfortable way to achieve the same thing, it's fine. and you are not alone, in vim world... :) yes, I had MRU installed. but I have another mapping for trigger it.

Cool! <Leader>fr? :)

[sk1418]

yes, I have mapped fr for triggering MRU. since I had Fuzzyfinder installed too, it begins with ff, fb...

Later I installed ctrl-p, the three plugins have overlapped function sets. Now I mainly use ctrl-p for finding things (mru files too), but the other two plugins have still been being there.

I haven't use Fuzzyfinder before, but I'm using ctrl-p for long time.

I found someting "issue" (I not sure it is) about ctrl-p, that is if the directory structure changed, the ctrl-p cache will not change automaticlly. Somebody said F5 could refresh the cache. But I never successed.....

[marslo]

Okay, F5 works in Windows, but nothing shows in PuTTy

[sk1418]

I have FF installed, but rarely used after I installed ctrl-p. I don't have windows system to test, and no putty either... you can look for help in FF's issue tracker.

That's okay... I think that might be the problem of PuTTy (shortcut key conflict or something). I can live with that... :)

[marslo]

Have you any clue about my "autocmd CmdWinEnter Q"?

[marslo]

By the way, I've read the VIM document - intro

<M-a> Meta- a ('a' with bit 8 set) <M-A> Meta- A ('A' with bit 8 set)

what does "'a' with bit 8 set" means?

[sk1418]

I believe that the bit-8 is terminal setting. because <alt-x> mappint doesn't work out of box for all terminals. You need tun a little bit. I was looking for a solution for insert mode <Alt-x> mapping, but didn't find a way there with my urxvt terminal. and gave up.

If you are using Linux Terminal (not PuTTy), try to add the following setting in your ~/.inputrc (this is mine).

set convert-meta on

The terminal way works for me. However, GUI can not (only Alt+b in InsertMode, Alt++ and others works fine for me), including both Windows and Linux(Ubuntu acutally)

[marslo]

Of cause, you also needs disable the Enable menu access keys:

[sk1418]

thank you for the suggestion.

• .inputrc is for readline config. my default shell is zsh, it doesn't read the file. and I don't think this will change the behavior of terminal
• my terminal (urxvt) doesn't have menu.
• I have struggled with this problem for relatively long time, but long time ago.... there is not yet a "universal working" solution,(or I haven't found). different terminals could need different settings, terminal setting, vim's timeout, ttimeout, keycode, mapping .... I just gave up. I was trying to map Alt-hjkl in Insert mode to move cursor. Now I found it doesn't hurt without that thing. :)
• Alt mapping should work with gvim out of box.
