我怎么按“ <C-L><C-W> 升 <C-W> _“在Vim？

Question

In one of the vim config files I have noticed this keyboard mapping map <CL> <CW>l<CW>_ supposedly for easier moving in tabs and windows. What does that translate to keyboard presses? What is that underscore at the end for?

Answer 1

The command map <CL> <CW>l<CW>_ maps Ctrl-L to Ctrl-W , l , Ctrl-W , _ .

You invoke this binding by just pressing Ctrl-L . To invoke what it binds to you would type Ctrl-W , then l , followed by Ctrl-W again, and finally _ (which on a US keyboard is shift-hyphen). This is two separate bindings, <CW>l moves the cursor to the window to the right, and <CW>_ resizes current window to the maximum possible vertical size.

Answer 2

The Ctrl + w l Ctrl + w _ keys sequence is somewhat too long so someone has created a shortcut (" map ping" in Vim-speak): Ctrl + L for it.

<Cw>l<Cw>_ moves the the cursor to the window on the right ( <Cw>l ) and maximizes it vertically ( <Cw>_ ).

Mappings always follow the same structure:

1. map (or imap for insert mode mapping, nmap for normal mode mapping, etc.)

2. some whitespace

3. the shortcut you want, here <CL>

4. some whitespace

5. the sequence of commands triggered by the shortcut
