linux ubuntu 15.04 vim ruby.vim imap <S-CR> <CR><CR>end<ESC>

Question

I am using Ubuntu 15.04 and vim-gnome 7.4.

When I run:

vim --version | grep -i +ruby

It returns:

+ruby

Based on: Vim Ruby Support site:

I can add the following to my .vimrc file:

imap <S-CR> <CR><CR>end<ESC>-cc

and type:

if name == "John"[<--cursor] (and hit Shift Enter)

should produce the following:

 if name == "John"
  [<--cursor]
end

but in my case it does not.

when I type in vim:

:map <S-CR>

to see if it returns a maping I don't get anything.

I do however have a line within my vimrc:

map
map!

To see if everything maps correctly and I get no errors and everything looks as it should.

Does anyone know why it is not working?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers.

Sorry I figured it out. What isn't working is my brain. It is working just fine in vim-gnome. I was typing the [<--cursor], which it obviously doesn't recognize. If I "hit enter" after "John". it closes the if statement.

Sorry! thanks for the help.
