I have been using vim since version 4, and never had this problem

I have always (in VI before vim and thereafter) used the following to
exchange the use of the g and G keys in my .vimrc file.
:noremap g G
:noremap G g
Now that I've updated to 7.0, this no longer works. It is hard to
retrain
my fingers after 20 years. Help!
How does it no longer work? Please provide more info; perhaps an
example.

Gerald:
Previously, if I wanted to move to line 26, I would just type
26 g
Now I have to type
26 gg
Previously, to get to the last line, I would only have to type
g
Now I have to type
gg
And G seems to have no function at all.
Now I remember. There was a discussion some time ago on vim@vim.org
about this. Read all about it at:

HTH :)

IOW, the problem seems to be caused by a gx mapping somewhere in the
netrw plugin set. You might try downloading the latest version, probably
from Dr. Charles "Chip" Campbell's site (astronaut or somesuch). Dr.
Chip, are you there?
Best regards,
Tony.
