You may change the shape of the cursor https://conemu.github.io/en/AnsiEscapeCodes.html#Terminal_modes
I have tried the following it just seems to be ignored
"Con Emu--------------------------
" Insert Mode
let &t_SI .= "\<Esc>[5 q"
" Normal Mode
let &t_EI .= "\<Esc>[1 q"
It simply stays as vertical blinking line no matter what I do.
What is your vim from and hub how do you run it?
My vim is 8.1.549, I am running it on centos vps, when I connect to it directly via putty it works without problem, but if I do the same via openssh on conemu the cursor remains unchanged no matter what spent days trying to figure it out. But nothing seems to work.
I'd first run :set term
(to show you current term type) and :set termcap
(to see if t_SI
and t_EI
are actually set) in VIM, from both putty and conemu. The escape sequences below that I found match up with the second set you gave, so I'd guess that you have putty running in xterm mode, but xterm isn't enabled in ConEmu's settings.
if &term =~ '^xterm\|rxvt'
" solid underscore
let &t_SI .= "\<Esc>[4 q"
" solid block
let &t_EI .= "\<Esc>[2 q"
" 1 or 0 -> blinking block
" 3 -> blinking underscore
" Recent versions of xterm (282 or above) also support
" 5 -> blinking vertical bar
" 6 -> solid vertical bar
endif
if &term =~ "xterm"
let &t_SI = "\<Esc>[6 q"
let &t_SR = "\<Esc>[4 q"
let &t_EI = "\<Esc>[2 q"
endif

Switching screens in an xterm *xterm-screens* *xterm-save-screen*
(From comp.editors, by Juergen Weigert, in reply to a question)
:> Another question is that after exiting vim, the screen is left as it :> was, i.e. the contents of the file I was viewing (editing) was left on :> the screen. The output from my previous like "ls" were lost, :> ie. no longer in the scrolling buffer. I know that there is a way to :> restore the screen after exiting vim or other vi like editors, :> I just don't know how. Helps are appreciated. Thanks. : :I imagine someone else can answer this. I assume though that vim and vi do :the same thing as each other for a given xterm setup.
They not necessarily do the same thing, as this may be a termcap vs. terminfo problem. You should be aware that there are two databases for describing attributes of a particular type of terminal: termcap and terminfo. This can cause differences when the entries differ AND when of the programs in question one uses terminfo and the other uses termcap (also see |+terminfo|).
In your particular problem, you are looking for the control sequences ^[[?47h and ^[[?47l. These switch between xterms alternate and main screen buffer. As a quick workaround a command sequence like echo -n "^[[?47h"; vim ... ; echo -n "^[[?47l" may do what you want. (My notation ^[ means the ESC character, further down you'll see that the databases use \E instead).
On startup, vim echoes the value of the termcap variable ti (terminfo: smcup) to the terminal. When exiting, it echoes te (terminfo: rmcup). Thus these two variables are the correct place where the above mentioned control sequences should go.
Compare your xterm termcap entry (found in /etc/termcap) with your xterm terminfo entry (retrieved with "infocmp -C xterm"). Both should contain entries similar to: :te=\E[2J\E[?47l\E8:ti=\E7\E[?47h:
PS: If you find any difference, someone (your sysadmin?) should better check the complete termcap and terminfo database for consistency.
NOTE 1: If you recompile Vim with FEAT_XTERM_SAVE defined in feature.h, the builtin xterm will include the mentioned "te" and "ti" entries.
NOTE 2: If you want to disable the screen switching, and you don't want to change your termcap, you can add these lines to your .vimrc: :set t_ti= t_te=
If you are using Vim with WSL, there was a known WSL issue https://github.com/Microsoft/console/issues/68. That issue was fixed in a recent Windows 10 update. However, I don't know if this fix will enable ConEmu to detect the cursor change from the "Real Console". Perhaps @Maximus5 can shed more light on that. More details and a hacky workaround here https://github.com/Maximus5/ConEmu/issues/937#issuecomment-446834709.
I am using vim on my centos vps. The cursor does change one I open host from putty, but not when usin powershell and openssh via conemu. In putty there is a trick you have to perform in order to make the cursor change is to set default cursor to vertical line rather than a block.
Here is my vim config, don't know where to look further.
This is my xterm termcap entry:

Hi,
I am trying to have cursor change to a Vertical Line in insert mode and to Block in normal mode. But could not find any info on how to do that in ConEmu. I managed to do so in putty by setting cursor appearance to vertical line and adding
But same doesn't work in ConEmu and openssh. Is there a way to do that?
