<M-d> mapping interfering with inserting a-umlaut (ä)

[fintelkai]

I would love to figure out how to disable the <M-d> mapping, so I can enter "ä" in emails to German correspondents. I tried

iunmap <M-d> 

late in my .vimrc but that doesn't do the trick.

What kind of Vim?

MacVim and mvim in iTerm.

Same on Debian with both terminal and GVim, version 7.3.932-3.

I use a Swiss keyboard with this XKB configuration, incidentally the problem also occurs if I press the digraph compose key present on the keyboard, followed by an 'a'.

You can iunmap in after/plugin/rsi.vim. Having an option to disable the meta maps wouldn't be a terrible idea.

Thanks, that did the trick, together with nunmap and cunmap.

It interferes with my Swedish "ä" too. :(

@ingemar, try putting the following into ~/.vim/after/plugin/rsi.vim:

silent! iunmap <M-d>
silent! nunmap <M-d>
silent! cunmap <M-d>

Thanks @toupeira. (Mainly wanted to poke tpope about it.. ;) )

Stumbled upon this problem too here in Estonia.

To be more explicit, I'd accept a g:rsi_no_meta patch.
