In both cases, before pressing A the cursor is one column past the "h". This makes sense since visual mode allows you to select the EOL. For some reason, in the second case, pressing A positions the cursor two columns past the "d". This seems like a bug in not recognizing that the cursor's column before pressing A is at the EOL and should stay at the EOL since 'virtualedit' isn't set. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <james...@jamessan.com> -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
