Actually, it turns out that Yakov's suggestion was correct.
When I re-entered vim subsequently the problem was solved. The mapping worked once vim had reset itself. Thanks! Eric On 7/10/06, Luc Hermitte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Looks like there is a mapping binded to é Does anything happen when you hit ``é'' ? The most probable hypothesis is that you have something mapped to <m-i>. As vim is not able to see the difference between <m-i> and é, you will not be able to insert é. Did you look at the result of verbose imap é ? HTH, -- Luc Hermitte http://hermitte.free.fr/vim/
