Re: mapping :h to ;

P.S. I recently noticed that on some terminals, <F11> is used by the
terminal itself to toggle between Maximize and Unmaximize and is not
passed to the application. This means that I go on using my <F11> and
<S-F11> mappings in gvim to go to the next window up or down, but in
Console Vim I must fall back to the defaults Ctrl-W w and Ctrl-W W, or
else click the statusline of the desired window (it's too late for me
to relocate these mappings, practically all my F and Shift-F keys are
taken).

Similarly, depending on the terminal, Alt+something may or may not be
recognizable. When in doubt, put Vim in Insert mode and hit Ctrl-V
followed by the key in question. If nothing gets inserted, Vim did not
receive the key or key combo. If something gets inserted, it might
still be undistinguishable from the same key without Alt: repeat the
procedure (Ctrl-V + the key without Alt) and check (by putting the
cursor on each character and hitting ga if necessary) that both
strings are different.


Best regadrs,
Tony.
