a normal mode <Leader> map won't help him much when he wants to
<ESC> out of input mode

i think i'd recommend an iabbr -- maybe something like

	iabbr eee <ESC>3x

but then, no, it wouldn't trigger if you typed Wheee!

happy new year everybody!

Maybe your ISP had spam filters blocking vim-list mail, and their 
criteria have been somehow adjusted?

About the time when the vim lists were transferred from some server at 
(IIRC) FU-Berlin to googlegroups, I got an address  <at> gmail.com because ML 
mail didn't arrive at my ISP address and I thought gmail was less likely 
to block Google Groups mail. Since then I've found out that Gmail spam 
filters don't destroy suspect messages, they hold them at some place 
where you can still get at them by webmail.

Best regards,
Tony.

If it were only Escape which were missing, you could get it back by 
means of a mapping (or rather, a pair of mappings) such as e.g.

	:map	<F2>	<Esc>
	:map!	<F2>	<Esc>

The lack of Ctrl key is not as obvious to work around. I don't know if 
it can be done.

Best regards,
Tony.

Re: how can i go to the function head?


in normal mode, type:

[{

If you are deep in the nested blocks, you can use count with this
command:

f() {
  if() {
    while () {
      // _ cursor here
    }
  }
}

with cursor at _ position, use 3[{ to jump to first
opening bracket of f(). Another possibility - [m

There are a lot of such useful motions. Not complete list:

:help [{
:help ]}
:help [(
:help [)
:help ]m
:help [m
:help ]M
:help [M
:help ]]

How does gvim detach itself from the parent shell?


Hey, I've written a few C++ programs that I use regularly, and it
would be nice if I could get them to detach from the parent shell when
I call them, but I don't know how to do it. How does gvim do it?

I'm on Windows (shell = command prompt).

I've had problems with this under Solaris and Linux.  As long as
vim or gvim are launched from the command line of an active
shell (e.g. from an xterm), no problem, but when you start
configuring menu entries and click-on icons, it's not always
clear what the environment is when starting the program.  What I
often end up doing is writing a small shell script to start the
program, after having set whatever needs to be set (generally by
sourcing .bashrc---this isn't an interactive shell), and
configuring the menu entry or button to invoke this script.

IIUC, how gvim does it depends on the OS. Under X11 it uses fork(). 
Under Windows, a single binary cannot be used as both Console Vim and 
gvim. Only gvim (the GUI) detaches itself from the parent shell. You may 
want to browse the following source files:
	gui.h
	gui_w32_rc.h
	gui.c
	gui.w32.c
	gui.w48.c

Best regards,
Tony.
