Hi,
I often have the problem to guess, how a certain keysequence is named
by the syntax of the vim scripting language.
Recently I tried to map Control-CursorUp but it simply does not work
for me.
Is there any function/script/hack/trick/* like Ctrl-v is for the "raw
keysequence" to display the <"key"> thingy?
Something like (example!) :
:showkey<CR>
will display
:press key
then one presses the key in question (for example Alt plus F11...)
and then it displays:
:<C-F11>
...
(an example only just to get around my limitied "power of
explanation"... ;O)

Keep hacking!

Ctrl + CursorUp is <C-Up> in a mapping
Alt + F11 is <M-F11> or <A-F11>
In the GUI but not in console Vim, you can find the value by hitting the
key preceded by Ctrl-V (or Ctrl-Q if you use Ctrl-V to paste) in either
Insert/Replace or Command-line modes
In the GUI and also in console Vim, you can find the value by hitting
the special key or key combo preceded by Ctrl-K in either Insert/Replace
or Command-line modes.
I don't know whether this second method also applies in "tiny" or
"small" versions of Vim (which lack the +digraphs feature); but these
versions also lack expression evaluation, so I personally give them a
wide berth.
Best regards,
Tony.
