I am sorry, I do not have them, but I do not understand why you should
need it.
The great magic about [Mac]Vim is that you do not need anymore to move
your hand to the arrows or anything else.
Just use Movements/Selection keys and you will be so much faster then
alt+shift+(log movement of the right hand)+left arrow
Really, give it a try.

> opt-left = move a word to left

b

> shift-opt-left = select a word to left

vb

> cmd-opt-left = go to beginning of line

0
(or ^ to the first not blank character of a line!)

> opt-delete = delete a word

d[a]w
(D-elete [A ]W-ord)

> flipping to command-mode for each word motion is kinda tediious

Really, it will take you no more then a week to be completely addicted
to it (I often find myself typing Vim Movement keys in "Pages/TextMate/
etc." :D )
