Unless you disable compatibility mode, in which case you can happily navigate with the arrow keys while in edit mode, presumably just as you are used to doing under linux. > Now on a OmniOS (and every other *NIX I know) console the arrow keys send > an ESC as the first character of their sequence so you end up in command mode. I don't know the internal details, but I assume vim interprets "ESC+arrow key stuff" as a movement command even in edit mode rather than reverting to command mode and doing random stuff based on the keys following the ESC... _______________________________________________ OmniOS-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss
