Re: Cannot use CTRL-Q in vim which in a PuTTY terminal.

Thanks a lot.
According to your key words "xon/xoff", I tried to configure the PuTTY, and fond a "TTY".
In TTY ctrl-q is for "START", so I remap it to ctrl-x.
Now vim working.
Thanks

Additionally Ctrl-Q/Ctrl-S are usually flow control codes used in
terminals and may not work every where. You might have to configure your
terminal emulator/screen/vim to make those keys work. You cannot rely
on it.

I believe putty has an option on how to handle xon/xoff.
