*insert_cancel.txt* For Vim version 6.0 Last change: 2018 July 12
DESCRIPTION *insert_cancel*
This plugin provides a mapping target to cancel an insert operation. It
leaves insert mode normally, firing |InsertLeave|, and then runs |:undo| if
the buffer was changed by the insert. This is intended as a remap of
|i_CTRL-C|.
REQUIREMENTS *insert_cancel-requirements*
This plugin only loads if 'compatible' is not set. It works best if you have
at least |vim7| with |autocmd|, because it leans on the |CursorMoved| event.
If you don't have |CursorMoved|, the |'[| and |']| marks are used to detect
changes instead. This still works for undoing insert additions, but it won't
restore text that was erased when insert mode was entered with |c| or |s| or
their variants, and it doesn't undo new unindented blank lines.
MAPPINGS *insert_cancel-mappings*
*<Plug>(InsertCancel)*
The single insert mode mapping target is |<Plug>(InsertCancel)|. There is no
default key mapping; you should define one yourself in your |vimrc|. For
example:
>
imap <C-C> <Plug>(InsertCancel)
<
ISSUES *insert_cancel-issues*
It doesn't work at all in paste mode, in the same way as any other mapping, so
you can't cancel an insert operation while pasting. You might consider this a
feature.
