Describe the bug
So C-h (control h) opens a windows in horizontal mode while in oil file manager, but I have disabled it. Here's my config.
return {
"stevearc/oil.nvim",
-- enabled = false,
dependencies = { "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons" },
config = function()
require("oil").setup({
float = {
max_width = 120, -- Adjust width
max_height = 30, -- Adjust height
border = "rounded", -- Optional: make the border rounded
},
default_file_explorer = true, -- start up nvim with oil instead of netrw
columns = {
-- "icon",
-- "permissions",
-- "size",
-- "mtime",
},
keymaps = {
["<A-h>"] = false,
["<C-h>"] = false,
["<C-c>"] = false, -- prevent from closing Oil as <C-c> is esc key
["<M-h>"] = "actions.select_split",
["<C-s>"] = { "actions.select", opts = { vertical = true } },
["gg"] = { "actions.change_sort", mode = "n" },
["q"] = "actions.close",
},
delete_to_trash = true,
view_options = {
show_hidden = true,
},
skip_confirm_for_simple_edits = true,
})
-- opens parent dir over current active window
vim.keymap.set("n", "-", "<CMD>Oil<CR>", { desc = "Open parent directory" })
-- open parent dir in float window
vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>-", require("oil").toggle_float)
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
pattern = "oil", -- Adjust if Oil uses a specific file type identifier
callback = function()
vim.cmd("highlight OilBorder guifg=white guibg=NONE")
vim.cmd("highlight CursorLineNr guifg=white")
end,
})
end,
}
Now the issue is Alt-H is doing same behavior as C-h, and I don't want either or, C-h is successfully disabled but Alt h isnt.
What is the severity of this bug?
minor (annoyance)
Steps To Reproduce
- Copy my config
- press Alt-h
Expected Behavior
It will open the current window in horizontal seperation

Repro
-- save as repro.lua
-- run with nvim -u repro.lua
-- DO NOT change the paths
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")
-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "runtime", "cache" }) do
vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end
-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
vim.fn.system({
"git",
"clone",
"--filter=blob:none",
"--single-branch",
"https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
lazypath,
})
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)
-- install plugins
local plugins = {
"folke/tokyonight.nvim",
{
"stevearc/oil.nvim",
config = function()
require("oil").setup({
-- add any needed settings here
})
end,
},
-- add any other plugins here
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
root = root .. "/plugins",
})
vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight")
-- add anything else here
Did you check the bug with a clean config?
- [x] I have confirmed that the bug reproduces with
nvim -u repro.luausing the repro.lua file above.
Oil doesn't bind anything to alt by default. You can confirm this if you want by setting use_default_keymaps = false, which will disable all built-in oil keymaps. I suspect that it is related to some other keymap you have. Try :nmap <A-h> to see if there is anything set.
