That should work. When you said you have tried to add and remove set macmeta
, nothing happens. Are you saying you manually used set macmeta
in MacVim? Or just adding/removing that line in your vimrc. It could be something else unsetting the macmeta
setting in your vimrc.
When you are in MacVim, use :set macmeta?
and it will tell you whether you have it set or not. Then you can try to manually set it again by using :set macmeta
and it should work. If it doesn't, type map <M-Up>
and see what it says?
Let me know if that helps or not.
@ychin thank you very much for your reply.
By following your instructions, I found the problem, although that is not the same as what you thought.
The problem is nothing related to set macmeta
.
The problem is the map
commands are not working in .vimrc
.
If I manually map it with :map <M-Up> :bp<CR>
in a running vim session, it works as expected.
I have tried to remove set macmeta
completely from .vimrc
and do not set it manually either. That doesn't stop :map <M-Up> :bp<CR>
working.
So the problem is somehow map <M-Up> :bp<CR>
does NOT work, but map <S-Up> :bp<CR>
works in .vimrc
. In other words, Alt Mapping does not work in .vimrc
.
Do you have any ideas why?
Thanks a lot.
I forgot to get back to this, but what you said should work. Have you tried using noremap
instead of map
just for sanity's sake? If this issue still persist for you today, maybe try to use noremap
, and clear your vimrc
to just the mapping so it's easier to catch issues related to other parts of your vimrc.
I have following key bindings in my vimrc. They will work with macmeta
is on. MacVim version 173. I have these bindings for years
nmap <M-j> mz:m+<CR>`z
nmap <M-k> mz:m-2<CR>`z
Closing this issue for now, as I'm pretty sure mapping <M-UP>
does work.
Btw, I have tired to add and remove set macmeta, nothing really happens with this set.
If I have to guess, your issue is that you unset macmeta. You are supposed to keep it on permanently. This will change in near future anyway when it gets deprecated. But for now, just don't unset macmeta and it should work.
Actually, Alt Mapping does not work on both
vim
andgvim
. But I actually give upvim
so far. At least,gvim
should work, but it doesn't.OS: MacOS Big Sur 11.4
I have the following in
.vimrc
Shift+Up/Down works. But Alt+Up/Down does NOT work at all in
gvim
. Btw, I have tired to add and removeset macmeta
, nothing really happens with this set.
