That's unusual, because wherever I tried, :set wrap! (with the
exclamation mark at the end) and :set invwrap do exactly the same thing
(and similarly for any boolean option). Maybe <cr> (in lowercase) is not
the same as <CR> (in uppercase, as used everywhere in the Vim help, and
among others at ":help keycodes") but in that case you should have seen
it remain hanging on the command-line, which somehow I doubt. Another
possibility is that your Openbox system was running in 'compatible'
mode, where <> notation is not recognised by default; however as soon as
Vim finds a .vimrc during startup it sets 'nocompatible' immediately
before sourcing it. (This does not happen if a -u argument prevents the
search for a user .vimrc.)

Tips and tricks:
On my system, /root/.vimrc is a softlink to /home/tonymec/.vimrc so
these two can never get out of sync. Similarly for .gvimrc which is
actually a zero-length file. Maybe I ought to do the same for .vim/


Best regards,
Tony.
