you could write a function with a while 1 loop that calls getchar() twice and calls exec 'normal i<C-K>' . char1 . char2, then calls itself recursively. Then ctrl-C would get you out.

I ran into a some issues while doing this. I could not make <C-k> work under execute. For e.g.:

The above snippet is printing `<C-k>aa` as it is. How can I make it consider `<C-k>` as the control character rather than a string.
