Re: Unusable keys in vim 7.3


I'm using openSUSE, which, like Fedora, is based on RedHat (but maybe not as closely), and these keys give me no problem. So, István:

- gvim or console Vim? And when you type :version what does it answer? — not the full answer: the first lines are enough, like these on my version of gvim:


Please see previous mail.
 
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Aug 10 2011 23:41:02)
Included patches: 1-280
Compiled by antoine.mechelynck@gmail.com
Huge version with GTK2-GNOME GUI.  Features included (+) or not (-):

To capture these into the clipboard, use
       :redir @+
       :version
       :redir END
then, after pasting, *remove* everything after "Features included(+) or not(-):", all stat stuff is not relevant in this case.

Huge version without GUI.  
 
Or, if your Vim is compiled with -clipboard, use copy-paste from some X11 terminal (using the terminal's facilities).

- When you type :scriptnames does it list anything before your own vimrc? If it does, look inside those files;

Please see previous email.
 
are they setting anything related to the keyboard?

- Do you sill have your pre-7.3 version of Vim? If you do, does _it_ list any scriptnames before your vimrc? And if different from those of Vim 7.3, do _they_ set anything related to the keyboard?


I do not use pre version.
 
- If console Vim, then in which terminal? Here are a few examples:
 - non-X console (go there by Ctrl-Alt-F2, come back by Ctrl-Alt-F7)
 - KDE konsole
 - gnome-terminal
 - xterm
 - mlterm
Try it in as many of them as you can, the results can be very different.

- In Insert mode, is anything inserted into your buffer when you type Ctrl-V followed by one of the problematic keys? (Repeat for each of them: Ctrl-V Home, look, Ctrl-V End, look, Ctrl-V PgUp, look, etc.). Before you do this, make sure you ":set showcmd", so that if after <Ctrl-V> <something> Vim hasn't got the <something> you'll see a ^V hanging near the bottom-right corner of your screen.
