Description Blink Eye 2009-08-19 11:57:23 UTC

Version:           2.3 (using 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31-rc6

Even though /usr/share/apps/konsole/default.keytab has a commented section about keypad for Vim it doesn't work. The same goes for ALT and SHIFT mappings - while everything works in xterm.

Example ~/.vimrc mappings:

" Maps ALT-[h,j,k,l] to resizing a window split
map <A-h> <C-w><
map <A-j> <C-W>-
map <A-k> <C-W>+
map <A-l> <c-w>>

" Maps SHIFT-Arrow[Up,Down,Left,Right] to resize a window split
map <S-Up> <C-W>+<CR>
map <S-Down> <C-W>-<CR>
map <S-Left> <c-w><<CR>
map <S-Right> <c-w>><CR>

" Fast window resizing with +/- keys (horizontal); / and * keys (vertical)
if bufwinnr(1)
   map <kPlus> <C-W>+<CR>
   map <kMinus> <C-W>-<CR>
   map <kDivide> <c-w><<CR>
   map <kMultiply> <c-w>><CR>
endif

Git commit ad4314c769dda0ce0bca6741b6bff4f4c9e18a61 by Jekyll Wu.
Committed on 26/04/2012 at 08:32.
Pushed by jekyllwu into branch 'master'.

Allow Shift+Arrow to be passed into to applications like mc and vim

Note: action shortcuts take precedence of keybindings. So to use
Shift+Arrow in mc/vim, make sure they are not set as action shortcuts.
