Dealing with special keys

Open mgedmin opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

When you record a vim macro, any special keys (such as arrows, or Backspace) get encoded using these strange <80>kX sequences. Do you think it would be possible for a plugin like yours to convert them to readable key names such as <Up> etc. and then convert them back after editing?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't see an easy way to accomplish it. Ideally if there a Vim function that does that, it would be easy to implement.

I opened same issue in another trending Vim plugin: link. No much hope though.
