I'm working on a paper using LaTex, and my preferred text editor is Vim. When using the LaTeX plugin from https://github.com/gerw/vim-latex-suite gives me just about everything I need when working with LaTeX.

Sadly there is one thing about the Suite that is driving me nuts. I have a habit when type braces (or quotes) to start by typing the pair (for example \text{}|) and then pressing <esc>i to place my cursor in between them \text{|}. Somewhere in the LaTeX suite there is some script or macro that automatically puts the cursor in between when I type the pair. After my muscle memory that usually leaves me with the cursor infront of the pair \text|{}.

How do I disable this 'feature'?

  • I just installed this plugin and I don't not see the behavior you are seeing. Are you sure its the plugin that is causing this behavior? – FDinoff Apr 26 '13 at 02:34
  • So if I understand you don't want after typing '\text{}' to place cursor between brackets ('\text{|}'), instead you want '\text{}|', right? – uzsolt Apr 26 '13 at 06:09

If I understand correctly (see my comment) you'll need to comment (or remove) from main.vim:

call IMAP ('{}','{<++>}<++>',"tex")

or change

call IMAP ('{}','{}<++>',"tex")

or you can call the line above from ~/.vimrc (or texrc or similar) - in this case the latexsuite's definition will override.
