SP3 computer.
i.e. pressing the "Esc" key does not exit the current insert mode.
"Ctrl-[" does not work either.

This sounds suspiciously like a mapping interfering.  First, try starting vim with no startup processed:

 vim -u NONE

and see if you get the same behavior.

If so, check your various mappings:

 :map
 :map!

to see if something is mapped to <esc> or <c-[>

-tim



vim -u NONE
has no problem with the Esc key and

 :map
 :map!
do not see anything mapped to <esc> or <c-[> .


Please help.
Thanks.
