Thanks, Dotan. Of the many suggestions made here I need to make some decisions about ways to keep myself apprised of the status of Capslock and whether I'm in visual mode or not.

Now that I'm using vim I use Esc a lot more than I ever did previously, and have often wished I the Esc key on my computer--a 13" MacBook--was larger. Would you mind sharing the mappings you use to swap the Capslock and Esc keys? [I take it the remapping would only be in effect in vim?]
