Not quite ... there are a few places in vim that even this won't work. Try /^V for example. [Bonus points for finding others.] Besides, I think his point was that he won't ever be in vim long enough to have to use either the ESC or the !. ~ ross -- This sentence would be seven words long if it were six words shorter. Exactly my point. However, I have actually started using vim, but only for cvs commit and only because emacs can take a long time to load, and waiting that long to write only one sentence seems like a waste. Please don't tell anyone I use vim. I should probably use the -m option and write the message on the command line. Oh well, at least now I've used vim and can say by experiance that emacs is WAY better. ---- Ryan Bowman The only vim command you ever need to learn - :q "When did stupidity become an opinion?"
