CTRL-X not showing the bottom menu (compatible/nocompatible issue)
- by simendsjo
I'm having some strange behavior in vim. When I press C-X in insert-mode, I see ^X flashing quickly in the bottom right, but I don't get the menu at the bottom. The keybindings seems to work just find anyway: C-X C-L gives me line completion.
I've managed to find out how to "fix" this, but it just doesn't seem right..
set compatible? echoes nocompatible. If I set it to compatible and then back to nocompatible, everything works. Trying the following at the end of my .vimrc doesn't help, and then I get some warnings from scripts.
Any idea what's causing this and how I can fix this?
