agreed basically... so just in case you can map things like (0.6
that is):
i use mappings like for somekind of emacs bindings ..:
cnoremap <C-p> <up>
cnoremap <C-n> <down>
cnoremap <C-f> <right>
cnoremap <C-b> <left>
inoremap <C-f> <right>
inoremap <C-b> <left>
about <C-u> and <C-k> i just woudn't know how to do.
shift end and delete or whatever... hmm
cheers
