The offending lines in my .vimrc were: nn 0 ^ | " goto first non-blank char in line nn ^ 0 | " goto start of line Replacing the <Tab><Tab> characters preceding the pipes with spaces fixed it. Executing the Normal command outside of a macro worked fine, but inside a macro failed. My original mapping used to work, but recently broke. Solved it by typing ':nn', which listed my Normal noremap-s and showed the <Tab> chars. Thanks for helping. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
