Hi Tim,

thank you for your fast help!
Unfortunately I typed in my question too fast.

I meant, that CTRL-A and CTRL-E are no longer
working in input MODE (I didnt typed that correctly).

Often it is advised to check the work of "special keys"
by tping the at the ':' prompt to see what happens.

That the reasons for what I wrote in the second part of
the mail.

Interestingly: When at the ':' prompt and typing
F1, F2, F3, ...

I get : <F2> for 'F2', <F3> for 'F3', <F4> for 'F4', but I
get ";" for F1 ???

Nonetheless.
"In previous times" ;) I could jump to the beginning of
a line in input mode with CTRL-A and to the end of the
line with CTRL-E. If this only a keybinding, which was
changed with vim 7.3. it is ok, but if there is still
something bad with my keymap-definition or even with
my hardware recognition/handling...sigh...

What happens to CTRL-A and CTRL-E at input mode ?

Thanks again for your help in advance!

Best regards,
mcc
