I see you've now replied to Gary with a reasonable description of what
you want, but at least the above map describes an instance of using
visual mode maps.
vmap : a visual mode map command
x : the key being mapped
:<c-u> : clears the command line
echo "it works!" : echoes "it works" to the status line. Your question
above _did_ ask "how to make it work".
<cr> : terminate the command-mode
Use:
select text using ctrl-v & motion (ctrl-q if you're using that
misbegotten mswin stuff).
press x
I don't have further time at the moment to look into your request; maybe
later on.
Regards,
Chip Campbell
