= Keys
|
|
|
|
== Key Syntax
|
|
|
|
Usual keys are written using their ascii character, including capital
|
|
keys. Non printable keys use an alternate name, written between *<*
|
|
and *>*, such as *<esc>* or *<del>*. Modified keys are written between
|
|
*<* and *>* as well, with the modifier specified as either *c* for
|
|
Control, or *a* for Alt, followed by a *-* and the key (either its
|
|
name or ascii character), for example *<c-x>*, *<a-space>*.
|
|
|
|
In order to bind some keys to arbitrary ones, refer to the 'mapping'
|
|
documentation page.
|
|
|
|
== Insert mode
|
|
|
|
*<esc>*::
|
|
leave insert mode
|
|
|
|
*<backspace>*::
|
|
delete characters before cursors
|
|
|
|
*<del>*::
|
|

|
|
|
|
*<left>*, *<right>*, *<up>*, *<down>*::

|

|
|
|
|
*<home>*::
|
|
move cursors to line begin
|
|
|
|
*<end>*::
|
|
move cursors to end of line
|
|
|
|
*<c-n>*::
|
|
select next completion candidate
|
|
|
|
*<c-p>*::
|
|
select previous completion candidate
|
|
|
|
*<c-x>*::
|
|
explicit insert completion query, followed by:
|
|
|
|
*f*:::
|
|
explicit file completion
|
|
|
|
*w*:::
|
|
explicit word completion (current buffer)
|
|
|
|
*W*:::
|
|
explicit word completion (all buffers)
|
|
|
|
*l*:::
|
|

|
|

|
*<c-o>*::
|
|

|
|

*<c-r>*::
|
|

|
|

*<c-v>*::
|
|
insert next keystroke directly into the buffer, without interpreting it
|
|
|
|
*<c-u>*::
|
|
commit changes up to now as a single undo group
|
|
|
|
*<a-;>*::
|
|
escape to normal mode for a single command
|
|
|
|
== Using Counts
|
|
|
|
In normal mode, commands can be prefixed with a numeric count, which can control
|
|
the command behaviour.
|
|
|
|
For example, *3W* selects 3 consecutive words and *3w* select the third word on
|
|
the right of selection end.
|
|
|
|
== Disabling Hooks
|
|
|
|
Any normal mode command can be prefixed with *\* which will disable hook execution
|
|
for the duration for the command (including the duration of modes the command could
|
|
move to, so *\i* will disable hooks for the whole insert session).
|
|
|
|
As autoindentation is implemented in terms of hooks, this can be used to disable
|
|
it when pasting text.
|
|
|
