Having the German Mac Keyboard Layout, it is a pain to type | as it is bound to <A-7> and it is hard for me to reach the Alt key.
Thus, I’d like to do the following remapping (exchanging the binding for | and 7):
imap 7 <Bar>
imap <A-7> 7
The first one works, the second one does not. I have already tried all combinations with inor (no remap) but wasn’t successful.
Maybe I don’t get the concept of remapping. Or I am missing something else.
In my experience, some re-mappings that involve modifiers simply don’t work in MacVim. The two workarounds I use are:
Try a different modifier key, e.g. or
Use Keyboard Maestro (an excellent key mapper for Mac OS X) to do the re-mapping
