Re: Don't load specific keymap when pasting

You can also disable keymaps temprarily while pasting.

Toggling keymaps is Ctrl-^ in Insert mode or ":let &imi = !&imi"
(without the quotes) in Normal mode; and if your keyboard (like my
Belgian AZERTY) doesn't give easy access to Ctrl-^ you can remap it to
something else: I use F8, as follows (this stands before the
"loadkeymap" line in my homemade keymap, but you could also put it in
your vimrc):

" map F8 to toggle keymaps, but only if that key isn't yet used for
" something else
if mapcheck("<F8>", "nvoicsxl") == ""
map <F8> :let &l:imi = !&l:imi<CR>
sunmap <F8>
map! <F8> <C-O><F8>
cmap <F8> <C-^>
endif

Best regards,
Tony.
