Hi all.
I have an issue using vim in the termninal. Every time I go to Indert mode and try to sue the cursor it just begging to write the letter A,B,C,D and creates a new line. I have been digging and seems it is because of the internal definition of the termcap in Vim. So I tried the next: set term=builtin_ansi But then it is messing up the colors. The term is xterm-256color by default. Is there ane way to get the cursors working properly without changing the termn, or using the xterm terminal? I forgot to say I am using latest vim 7.3. Thanks -- Un saludo Best Regards Pablo Giménez -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.

The value of $TERM needs to be appropriate for the terminal you are actually using. Vim uses $TERM to determine the terminal's capabilities and escape sequences from your system's terminfo or termcap database. If the value of $TERM is not correct, then Vim may obtain an incorrect description of your arrow keys. What is the terminal you are using and what is the value of $TERM?

I should have suggested this earlier: Try starting vim like this, vim -N -u NONE to see whether the behavior is due to either your ~/.vimrc or one of your plugins. One other thing you might try is executing infocmp to see if xterm-256color is properly defined on your system. I run Vim 7.3.524 in a GNOME Terminal 2.26.3.1 on a Fedora 11 system daily without problems, but my TERM is set to "xterm". I just tried setting TERM to "xterm-256color" and the arrow keys worked fine in both normal and insert modes. I don't see anything in the Profile Preferences that would change the arrow key behavior.

Ja I got where is the problem.
I have these keymaps for the completion popmenu: inoremap <expr> <Esc> pumvisible() ? "\<C-e>" : "\<Esc>" inoremap <expr> <CR> pumvisible() ? "\<C-y>" : "\<CR>" inoremap <expr> <Down> pumvisible() ? "\<C-n>" : "\<Down>" inoremap <expr> <Up> pumvisible() ? "\<C-p>" : "\<Up>" inoremap <expr> <PageDown> pumvisible() ? "\<PageDown>\<C-p>\<C-n>" : "\<PageDown>" inoremap <expr> <PageUp> pumvisible() ? "\<PageUp>\<C-p>\<C-n>" : "\<PageUp>" I got them from the vim wiki, so I am not sure why they are breaking my cursors when working from a terminal. It is supposed that if pop menu is not visible they just return the same key isnt it? 2012/5/30 Pablo Giménez <[hidden email]>: > 2012/5/29 Gary Johnson <[hidden email]>: >> On 2012-05-29, Pablo Giménez Pizarro wrote: >>> Enviado desde mi iPhone >>> >>> El 29 May 2012, a las 20:05, Gary Johnson <[hidden email]> escribió: >>> >>> > On 2012-05-29, Pablo Giménez wrote: >>> >> Hi all. >>> >> I have an issue using vim in the termninal. >>> >> Every time I go to Indert mode and try to sue the cursor it just >>> >> begging to write the letter A,B,C,D and creates a new line. >>> >> I have been digging and seems it is because of the internal definition >>> >> of the termcap in Vim. >>> >> So I tried the next: >>> >> set term=builtin_ansi >>> >> >>> >> But then it is messing up the colors. >>> >> The term is xterm-256color by default. >>> >> Is there ane way to get the cursors working properly without changing >>> >> the termn, or using the xterm terminal? >>> >> I forgot to say I am using latest vim 7.3. >>> > >>> > The value of $TERM needs to be appropriate for the terminal you are >>> > actually using. >>> > >>> > Vim uses $TERM to determine the terminal's capabilities and escape >>> > sequences from your system's terminfo or termcap database.

Well, that was easy: I just executed the first inoremap above and now when I use the arrow keys in insert mode I get A, B, C and D. I don't have time at the moment to look at this more closely, but it looks like possibly a bug. I can verify that the pumvisible() function is returning the correct values. It appears that when an Esc arrives in the input buffer, the process of handling it with the inoremap disconnects it from the following characters so that it and the following characters are no longer recognized as an escape sequence. The behavior might be affected by 'timeout' and/or 'ttimeout', or maybe those options are being ignored when they shouldn't be. Maybe someone with more experience with these mappings can chime in.

So you guys thinks it is definitely a bug?
