With the latest updates to vi and I guess readline, vi behaves very differently than it did just before the update. Specifically, the screen flashes white/black when the cursor is in column 1 if a left cursor is pressed or if vi toggles itself out of input mode. > > How can I get rid of the flashing and get rid of vi taking itself out of input/replace mode when it gets to column 1? > > The current behavior is better than when I first tried it several weeks ago, but it is still way different from any vi I have used before. Anybody got a handy reference for handling vi changes in the latest version? Is it vi or vim? Which version? What terminal are you running it in? I run vim (7.2.65-1.1) in either gnome-terminal or xterm and I have none of these issues. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
