I use some things added to the .vimrc file to do that kind of thing, but its trigger character is the backslash: \ The backslash is something that we don't make a lot of use of in general typing, so about the only time I'd ever type it in VIM was when using a special code. On those few occasions I do want to type it, I can either double-tap it, or just wait a moment. The comma, on the other hand, gets typed an awful lot, I always want it to be a comma, and I don't want it interrupting normal typing. So, if you can change your special code character, the backslash is a reasonable one to pick, the comma seems a really bad choice. And it can be typed without having to use shift (at least on my keyboard layout), so it's quick. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 (always current details of the computer that I'm writing this email on) Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
