Vim cursor goes line down when esc mapped to jk

Question

I have

imap jk <C-[>

in my vimrc, but when I use it on the end of line (when cursor is on $ when list is on) cursor goes to beginning of next line. How to fix it?

Answer 1

It works normally for me.

I assume interfering mappings or settings.

First you should try

:inoremap jk <C-[>

can you provide more details

• version
• verbose set ¹
• map j
• map k
• map jk

I have a hunch it might be the virtualedit settings or stuff like that interfering

_{¹ get it with}

:redir >> ~/file.log
:verbose set
:redir END
