==[[Do not auto-add a newline at EOF]]==

==[[Prevent the cursor from jumping around when pressing "V" for visual mode]]==

I don't think this tip should remain on its own merits, this seems like a rather silly typo to make and the only real take-away message is "if you sometimes hit one key when you meant another, you can map the accidental keypress to the intended keypress". I have something similar, mapping <F1> to <Esc>.

I can't think of a good place to merge it. Perhaps merge to [[VimTip22]] and add a new section for mappings as opposed to the ex command typos already covered? --[[User:Fritzophrenic|Fritzophrenic]] 05:00, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
