I always wondered why the tips didn't work when I tried to implement
this in my .vimrc, but now I know. Awsome.
I figured out that the keystroke CTRL + Tabulator at my Terminal
reach the vim with as <C-I>. Don't know why but with the shortcut in the
.vimrc it works fine.
With the method Tony describe ^I ( <C-I> ), was not shown, I tried it
with:
* Open vim
* :
* CTRL + K
* and then I tpyed the keystroke twice ( here: CTRL + Tabulart )
Finaly the shortcut was shown.
Perhpas this helps.
Cheers -- Erik
