I use nvim with a German keyboard (on a Mac) and have remapped some keys to do something more useful for me. This is what that part of my init.vim looks like:

nnoremap , :
nnoremap : ,
imap ö (
imap ä )
imap Ö [
imap Ä ]
imap ü {
imap Ü }
imap ß \

nmap ß \
nmap ö /

My problem is that when I use, for example f{, it tries to find the character ü instead, and the same for all remapped characters. I tried other types of maps, but that does not seem to help.

EDIT: I also just checked on my Linux machine, and this does not seem to be a MacOS issue, the behaviour is the same there (perhaps unsurprisingly).

EDIT2: I have reduced my init.vim to just the above. The command :verbose nmap { returns No mapping found. Furthermore, what I noticed is that if I am in normal mode and type //, below I see /ö instead -- i.e. it seems that the first instance of / is remapped correctly, but once I am inside the /-command, it is not.

  • I cannot reproduce the issue. Can you please check if the issue persists with a minimal vimrc containing only these remappings, and check if `{` has been mapped to another key in normal mode (`:verbose nmap {`)? – Futarimiti Nov 11 '22 at 11:36
