'keymap' is also a buffer-local (not window-local) option, you should also set it by means of :setlocal. IIRC, setting 'keymap' on a given buffer also sets 'iminsert' to 1 on that same buffer as a side-effect. My custom 'statusline' setting displays the b:keymap_name when keymaps are in use (via the %k item) and at the moment, some windows have that, others not, so it is definitely possible to set it separately for different buffers. FWIW, here's the 'statusline' I use: if has('statusline') set statusline=%<%f\ %h%m%r%=%k[%{(&fenc==''?&enc:&fenc)}%{(&bomb?',BOM':'')}][U+%04B]\ %-12.(%l,%c%V%)\ %P endif If, in a given buffer, 'iminsert' is not set locally the way you want it, you can toggle it by means of the Ctrl-^ keystroke in Insert mode. That keystroke is hard to get on my keyboard, so I added the following to my owncoded keymap before the :loadkeymap line: if mapcheck("<F8>", "nvoicsxl") == "" map <F8> :let &l:imi = !&l:imi<CR> sunmap <F8> map! <F8> <C-O><F8> cmap <F8> <C-^> endif Best regards, Tony. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
