*insert_cancel.txt* For Vim version 6.0 Last change: 2018 July 11
DESCRIPTION *insert_cancel*
This plugin provides a mapping target to cancel an insert operation, by
leaving insert mode normally and undoing a change if one was made by that
insert operation. It's intended as a target for |i_CTRL-C|, to make it do
something useful, and to fire |InsertLeave| afterwards where available.
REQUIREMENTS *insert_cancel-requirements*
This plugin is only available if 'compatible' is not set. It works better on
newer versions of Vim. It works best if you have |autocmd| and at least
|version-7.0|, because it leans on |CursorMoved|.
If you don't have |autocmd| and |version7|, all the plugin has to go on are
the |'[| and |']| marks. It still kind of works, but there are some big gaps;
it won't undo text that was erased when insert mode was entered with |c| or
|s| or its variants, and it also may not undo new blank lines. Even this is
still rather better than just the intuitive mapping:
>
imap <C-C> <Esc>u
<
MAPPINGS *insert_cancel-mappings*
*<Plug>(InsertCancel)*
The single mapping target provided is |<Plug>(InsertCancel)|, mappable in any
mode. There is no default key mapping to the target; you should define this
yourself in your |vimrc|. For example:
>
imap <C-C> <Plug>(InsertCancel)
