Fix terminal timeout when pressing escape
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
When you're pressing :kbd:`Escape` to leave insert mode in the terminal, it
|
|
will by default take a second or another keystroke to leave insert mode
|
|
completely and update the statusline. If you find this annoying, you can add
|
|
the following snippet to your :file:`vimrc` to escape insert mode
|
|
immediately:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: vim
|
|
|
|
if ! has('gui_running')
|
|
set ttimeoutlen=10
|
|
augroup FastEscape
|
|
autocmd!
|
|
au InsertEnter * set timeoutlen=0
|
|
au InsertLeave * set timeoutlen=1000
|
|
augroup END
|
|
endif
|
|
|
|
Useful settings
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
You may find the following vim settings useful when using the Powerline
|
|
statusline:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: vim
|
|
|
|
set laststatus=2 " Always display the statusline in all windows
|
|
set noshowmode " Hide the default mode text (e.g. -- INSERT -- below the statusline)
|
|
|
|
Terminus font and urxvt
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
The Terminus fonts does not have the powerline glyths and unless someone submits a patch to
|
|
the font author, it is unlikely to happen. However, Andre Klärner came up with this work around:
|
|
In your ``~/.Xdefault`` file add the following:
|
|
|
|
``urxvt*font: xft:Terminus:pixelsize=12,xft:Inconsolata\ for\ Powerline:pixelsize=12``
|
|
|
|
This will allow urxvt to fallback onto the Inconsolata fonts in case it does not find the right
|
|
glyths within the terminus font.
