Hello Antoine,
In VI, if I wanted to search for a control character (like <ctrl-m>) I
used the ^v character.
Can you tell me how I would do it in VIM (in a windows environment)?
Thanks very much,
Dennis

1. I'm Cc-ing this to the [email protected] mailing list, where this kind of
questions belong. You can subscribe to it by sending an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and then obeying what the autoreply will tell you to
make the subscription stick. But mailing list posts MUST be plaintext only;
anything in HTML is silently discarded in order to fight spam.
2. There are two possibilities to answer your question:
Method I (recommended, especially for former Vi users): Remove from your vimrc
(or exrc) the line which invokes the "mswin.vim" script, and Vim's Ctrl-C
Ctrl-X Ctrl-V (etc.) keys will again behave "as in Vim" and not "as in
Notepad". You will still be able to access the clipboard in Vim as register +
or register * (which, under Windows but not under X11, are synonymous).
Method II: If you keep the mswin.vim line, you can still do "what Ctrl-V
normally does in Vim" by using Ctrl-Q instead.
See
:help mswin.vim
:help CTRL-V-alternative
:help i_CTRL-Q
Best regards,
Tony.
