Yes, I understand that if the user has explicitly defined
g:mapleader in their vimrc, then that works. However, if
the user lets Vim default to '\' then it doesn't work the
way your code is written.
One can certainly add to their vimrc:
let g:mapleader = '\'
and now:
:AN \abox
works - which it doesn't now as I mentioned above.
But that won't work when running with -u NORC.
Your fix notes specify:
v3 May 19, 2004 : * bugfix: now works correctly when mapleader
wasn't set by user explicitly
so perhaps you fixed this in the past and something is
preventing your fix from working today.
You could easily make default behavior work by adding, right
after your check for previous load, code such as:
if !exists("g:mapleader")
let g:mapleader = '\'
endif
Which would allow users who use Vim's default behavior,
without explicitly setting mapleader, to do:
:AN \abox
