+Key mapping, abbreviations and user-defined commands.
+
+This subject is introduced in sections |05.3|, |24.7| and |40.1| of the user
+manual.
+
+1. Key mapping			|key-mapping|
+2. Abbreviations		|abbreviations|
+3. Local mappings and functions	|script-local|
+4. User-defined commands	|user-commands|
+
+==============================================================================
+1. Key mapping				*key-mapping* *mapping* *macro*
+
+Key mapping is used to change the meaning of typed keys.  The most common use
+is to define a sequence commands for a function key.  Example: >
+
+	:map <F2> a<C-R>=strftime("%c")<CR><Esc>
+
+This appends the current date and time after the cursor. (in <> notation |<>|)
+
+There are commands to enter new mappings, remove mappings and list mappings.
+See |map-overview| for the various forms of "map" and their relationships with
+modes.
+
+{lhs}	means left-hand-side	*{lhs}*
+{rhs}	means right-hand-side	*{rhs}*
+
+:map	{lhs} {rhs}					*:map*

+:lm[ap]	{lhs} {rhs}					*:lm* *:lmap*
+:cm[ap]	{lhs} {rhs}					*:cm* *:cmap*
+			Map the key sequence {lhs} to {rhs} for the modes
+			where the map command applies.  The result, including
+			{rhs}, is then further scanned for mappings.  This
+			allows for nested and recursive use of mappings.

+			Map the key sequence {lhs} to {rhs} for the modes
+			where the map command applies.  Disallow mapping of
+			{rhs}, to avoid nested and recursive mappings.  Often
+			used to redefine a command.  {not in Vi}

+			Remove the mapping of {lhs} for the modes where the
+			map command applies.  The mapping may remain defined
+			for other modes where it applies.
+			Note: Trailing spaces are included in the {lhs}.  This
+			unmap does NOT work: >

+:im[ap]
+:lm[ap]

+			used most often, because they include the other modes.
+
+:map    {lhs}						*:map_l*

+:cm[ap] {lhs}						*:cmap_l*
+			List the key mappings for the key sequences starting
+			with {lhs} in the modes where the map command applies.
+			{not in Vi}
+
+These commands are used to map a key or key sequence to a string of
+characters.  You can use this to put command sequences under function keys,
+translate one key into another, etc.  See |:mkexrc| for how to save and
+restore the current mappings.
+
+				*:map-local* *:map-<buffer>* *E224* *E225*
+If the first argument to one of these commands is "<buffer>" it will apply to
+mappings locally to the current buffer only.  Example: >
+	:map <buffer>  ,w  /[.,;]<CR>
+Then you can map ",w" to something else in another buffer: >
+	:map <buffer>  ,w  /[#&!]<CR>
+The local buffer mappings are used before the global ones.
+The "<buffer>" argument can also be used to clear mappings: >
+	:unmap <buffer> ,w
+	:mapclear <buffer>
+Local mappings are also cleared when a buffer is deleted, but not when it is
+unloaded.  Just like local option values.
+
+						*:map-<silent>* *:map-silent*
+To define a mapping which will not be echoed on the command line, add
+"<silent>" as the first argument.  Example: >
+	:map <silent> ,h /Header<CR>
+The search string will not be echoed when using this mapping.  Messages from
+the executed command are still given though.  To shut them up too, add a
+":silent" in the executed command: >
+	:map <silent> ,h :exe ":silent normal /Header\r"<CR>
+Prompts will still be given, e.g., for inputdialog().
+Using "<silent>" for an abbreviation is possible, but will cause redrawing of
+the command line to fail.
+
+						*:map-<script>* *:map-script*
+If the first argument to one of these commands is "<script>" and it is used to
+define a new mapping or abbreviation, the mapping will only remap characters
+in the {rhs} using mappings that were defined local to a script, starting with
+"<SID>".  This can be used to avoid that mappings from outside a script
+interfere (e.g., when CTRL-V is remapped in mswin.vim), but do use other
+mappings defined in the script.
+Note: ":map <script>" and ":noremap <script>" do the same thing.  The
+"<script>" overrules the command name.  Using ":noremap <script>" is
+preferred, because it's clearer that remapping is (mostly) disabled.
+
+						*:map-<unique>* *E226* *E227*
+If the first argument to one of these commands is "<unique>" and it is used to
+define a new mapping or abbreviation, the command will fail if the mapping or
+abbreviation already exists.  Example: >
+	:map <unique> ,w  /[#&!]<CR>
+When defining a local mapping, there will also be a check if a global map
+already exists which is equal.
+Example of what will fail: >
+	:map ,w  /[#&!]<CR>
+	:map <buffer> <unique> ,w  /[.,;]<CR>
+
+"<buffer>", "<silent>", "<script>" and "<unique>" can be used in any order.
+They must appear right after the command, before any other arguments.
+
+
+MAPPING AND MODES
+
+There are five sets of mappings
+- For Normal mode: When typing commands.
+- For Visual mode: When typing commands while the Visual area is highlighted.
+- For Operator-pending mode: When an operator is pending (after "d", "y", "c",
+  etc.).  Example: ":omap { w" makes "y{" work like "yw" and "d{" like "dw".
+- For Insert mode. These are also used in Replace mode.
+- For Command-line mode: When entering a ":" or "/" command.
+
+There are no separate mappings for Select mode.  The same as for Visual mode
+are used |Select-mode-mapping|.
+
+Special case: While typing a count for a command in Normal mode, mapping zero
+is disabled.  This makes it possible to map zero without making it impossible
+to type a count with a zero.
+
+						*map-overview* *map-modes*
+Overview of which map command works in which mode:
+
+    commands:				      modes: ~
+					  Normal     Visual  Operator-pending ~
+:map   :noremap   :unmap   :mapclear	    yes	       yes	  yes
+:nmap  :nnoremap  :nunmap  :nmapclear	    yes		-	   -
+:vmap  :vnoremap  :vunmap  :vmapclear	     -	       yes	   -
+:omap  :onoremap  :ounmap  :omapclear	     -		-	  yes
+
+					  Insert  Command-line	Lang-Arg ~
+:map!  :noremap!  :unmap!  :mapclear!	    yes	       yes	   -
+:imap  :inoremap  :iunmap  :imapclear	    yes		-	   -
+:cmap  :cnoremap  :cunmap  :cmapclear	     -	       yes	   -
+:lmap  :lnoremap  :lunmap  :lmapclear	    yes*       yes*	  yes*
+
+The original Vi did not have separate mappings for
+Normal/Visual/Operator-pending mode and for Insert/Command-line mode.
+Therefore the ":map" and ":map!" commands enter and display mappings for
+several modes.  In Vim you can use the ":nmap", ":vmap", ":omap", ":cmap" and
+":imap" commands to enter mappings for each mode separately.
+
+To enter a mapping for Normal and Visual mode, but not Operator-pending mode,
+first define it for all three modes, then unmap it for Operator-pending mode:
+	:map    xx something-difficult
+	:ounmap xx
+Likewise for a mapping for Visual and Operator-pending mode or Normal and
+Operator-pending mode.
+
+						*language-mapping*
+":lmap" defines a mapping that applies to:
+- Insert mode
+- Command-line mode
+- when entering a search pattern
+- the argument of the commands that accept a text character, such as "r" and
+  "f"
+- for the input() line
+Generally: Whenever a character is to be typed that is part of the text in the
+buffer, not a Vim command character.  "Lang-Arg" isn't really another mode,
+it's just used here for this situation.
+   The simplest way to load a set of related language mappings is by using the
+'keymap' option.  See |45.5|.
+   In Insert mode and in Command-line mode the mappings can be disabled with
+the CTRL-^ command |i_CTRL-^| |c_CTRL-^|.  When starting to enter a normal
+command line (not a search pattern) the mappings are disabled until a CTRL-^
+is typed.  The state last used is remembered for Insert mode and Search
+patterns separately.  The state for Insert mode is also used when typing a
+character as an argument to command like "f" or "t".
+   When adding a ":lmap" mapping the use of these mappings in Insert mode and
+for Search patterns will be switched on.
+   Language mappings will never be applied to already mapped characters.  They
+are only used for typed characters.  This assumes that the language mapping
+was already done when typing the mapping.
+
+							*map-multibyte*
+It is possible to map multibyte characters, but only the whole character.  You
+cannot map the first byte only.  This was done to prevent problems in this
+scenario: >
+	:set encoding=latin1
+	:imap <M-C> foo
+	:set encoding=utf-8
+The mapping for <M-C> is defined with the latin1 encoding, resulting in a 0xc3
+byte.  If you type the character á (0xea <M-a>) in UTF-8 encoding this is the
+two bytes 0xc3 0xa1.  You don't want the 0xc3 byte to be mapped then,
+otherwise it would be impossible to type the á character.
+
+							*map-listing*
+When listing mappings the characters in the first two columns are:
+
+      CHAR	MODE	~
+     <Space>	Normal, Visual and Operator-pending
+	n	Normal
+	v	Visual
+	o	Operator-pending
+	!	Insert and Command-line
+	i	Insert
+	l	":lmap" mappings for Insert, Command-line and Lang-Arg
+	c	Command-line
+
+Just before the {rhs} a special character can appear:
+	*	indicates that it is not remappable
+	&	indicates that only script-local mappings are remappable
+	@	indicates a buffer-local mapping
+
+Everything from the first non-blank after {lhs} up to the end of the line
+(or '|') is considered to be part of {rhs}.  This allows the {rhs} to end
+with a space.
+
+Note: When using mappings for Visual mode, you can use the "'<" mark, which
+is the start of the last selected Visual area in the current buffer |'<|.
+
+							*map_backslash*
+Note that only CTRL-V is mentioned here as a special character for mappings
+and abbreviations.  When 'cpoptions' does not contain 'B', a backslash can
+also be used like CTRL-V.  The <> notation can be fully used then |<>|.  But
+you cannot use "<C-V>" like CTRL-V to escape the special meaning of what
+follows.
+
+To map a backslash, or use a backslash literally in the {rhs}, the special
+sequence "<Bslash>" can be used.  This avoids the need to double backslashes
+when using nested mappings.
+
+							*map-ambiguous*
+When two mappings start with the same sequence of characters, they are
+ambiguous.  Example: >
+	:imap aa foo
+	:imap aaa bar
+When Vim has read "aa", it will need to get another character to be able to
+decide if "aa" or "aaa" should be mapped.  This means that after typing "aa"
+that mapping won't get expanded yet, Vim is waiting for another character.
+If you type a space, then "foo" will get inserted, plus the space.  If you
+type "a", then "bar" will get inserted.
+{Vi does not allow ambiguous mappings}
+
+							*map_CTRL_C*
+It's not possible to use a CTRL-C in the {lhs}.  You just can't map CTRL-C.
+The reason is that CTRL-C must always be available to break a running command.
+Exception: When using the GUI version on MS-Windows CTRL-C can be mapped to
+allow a Copy command to the clipboard.  Use CTRL-Break to interrupt Vim.
+
+							*map_space_in_lhs*
+To include a space in {lhs} precede it with a CTRL-V (type two CTRL-Vs for
+each space).
+							*map_space_in_rhs*
+If you want a {rhs} that starts with a space, use "<Space>".  To be fully Vi
+compatible (but unreadable) don't use the |<>| notation, precede {rhs} with a
+single CTRL-V (you have to type CTRL-V two times).
+							*map_empty_rhs*
+You can create an empty {rhs} by typing nothing after a single CTRL-V (you
+have to type CTRL-V two times).  Unfortunately, you cannot do this in a vimrc
+file.
+							*<Nop>*
+A easier way to get a mapping that doesn't produce anything, is to use "<Nop>"
+for the {rhs}.  This only works when the |<>| notation is enabled.  For
+example, to make sure that function key 8 does nothing at all: >
+	:map  <F8>  <Nop>
+	:map! <F8>  <Nop>
+<
+					*<Leader>* *mapleader*
+To define a mapping which uses the "mapleader" variable, the special string
+"<Leader>" can be used.  It is replaced with the string value of "mapleader".
+If "mapleader" is not set or empty, a backslash is used instead.  Example: >
+	:map <Leader>A  oanother line<Esc>
+Works like: >
+	:map \A  oanother line<Esc>
+But after: >
+	:let mapleader = ","
+It works like: >
+	:map ,A  oanother line<Esc>
+
+Note that the value of "mapleader" is used at the moment the mapping is
+defined.  Changing "mapleader" after that has no effect for already defined
+mappings.
+
+					*<LocalLeader>* *maplocalleader*
+Just like <Leader>, except that it uses "maplocalleader" instead of
+"mapleader".  <LocalLeader> is to be used for mappings which are local to a
+buffer.  Example: >
+      :map <LocalLeader>q  \DoItNow
+<
+In a global plugin <Leader> should be used and in a filetype plugin
+<LocalLeader>.  "mapleader" and "maplocalleader" can be equal.  Although, if
+you make them different, there is a smaller chance of mappings from global
+plugins to clash with mappings for filetype plugins.  For example, you could
+keep "mapleader" at the default backslash, and set "maplocalleader" to an
+underscore.
+
+							*map-<SID>*
+In a script the special key name "<SID>" can be used to define a mapping
+that's local to the script.  See |<SID>| for details.
+
+							*<Plug>*
+The special key name "<Plug>" can be used for an internal mapping, which is
+not to be matched with any key sequence.  This is useful in plugins
+|using-<Plug>|.
+
+							*<Char>* *<Char->*
+To map a character by its decimal, octal or hexadecimal number the <Char>
+construct can be used:
+	<Char-123>	character 123
+	<Char-033>	character 27
+	<Char-0x7f>	character 127
+This is useful to specify a (multi-byte) character in a 'keymap' file.
+Upper and lowercase differences are ignored.
+
+							*map-comments*
+It is not possible to put a comment after these commands, because the '"'
+character is considered to be part of the {lhs} or {rhs}.
+
+							*map_bar*
+Since the '|' character is used to separate a map command from the next
+command, you will have to do something special to include  a '|' in {rhs}.
+There are three methods:
+   use	     works when			   example	~
+   <Bar>     '<' is not in 'cpoptions'	   :map _l :!ls <Bar> more^M
+   \|	     'b' is not in 'cpoptions'	   :map _l :!ls \| more^M
+   ^V|	     always, in Vim and Vi	   :map _l :!ls ^V| more^M
+
+(here ^V stands for CTRL-V; to get one CTRL-V you have to type it twice; you
+cannot use the <> notation "<C-V>" here).
+
+All three work when you use the default setting for 'cpoptions'.
+
+When 'b' is present in 'cpoptions', "\|" will be recognized as a mapping
+ending in a '\' and then another command.  This is Vi compatible, but
+illogical when compared to other commands.
+
+							*map_return*
+When you have a mapping that contains an Ex command, you need to put a line
+terminator after it to have it executed.  The use of <CR> is recommended for
+this (see |<>|).  Example: >
+   :map  _ls  :!ls -l %<CR>:echo "the end"<CR>
+
+To avoid mapping of the characters you type in insert or Command-line mode,
+type a CTRL-V first.  The mapping in Insert mode is disabled if the 'paste'
+option is on.
+
+Note that when an error is encountered (that causes an error message or beep)
+the rest of the mapping is not executed.  This is Vi-compatible.
+
+Note that the second character (argument) of the commands @zZtTfF[]rm'`"v
+and CTRL-X is not mapped.  This was done to be able to use all the named
+registers and marks, even when the command with the same name has been
+mapped.
+
+							*map-which-keys*
+If you are going to map something, you will need to choose which key(s) to use
+for the {lhs}.  You will have to avoid keys that are used for Vim commands,
+otherwise you would not be able to use those commands anymore.  Here are a few
+suggestions:
+- Function keys <F2>, <F3>, etc..  Also the shifted function keys <S-F1>,
+  <S-F2>, etc.  Note that <F1> is already used for the help command.
+- Meta-keys (with the ALT key pressed).
+- Use the '_' or ',' character and then any other character.  The "_" and ","
+  commands do exist in Vim (see |_| and |,|), but you probably never use them.
+- Use a key that is a synonym for another command.  For example: CTRL-P and
+  CTRL-N.  Use an extra character to allow more mappings.
+
+See the file "index" for keys that are not used and thus can be mapped without
+losing any builtin function.  You can also use ":help {key}^D" to find out if
+a key is used for some command.  ({key} is the specific key you want to find
+out about, ^D is CTRL-D).
+
+							*map-examples*
+A few examples (given as you type them, for "<CR>" you type four characters;
+the '<' flag must not be present in 'cpoptions' for this to work). >
+
+   :map <F3>  o#include
+   :map <M-g> /foo<CR>cwbar<Esc>
+   :map _x    d/END/e<CR>
+   :map! qq   quadrillion questions
+<
+							*map-typing*
+Vim will compare what you type with the start of a mapped sequence.  If there
+is an incomplete match, it will get more characters until there either is a
+complete match or until there is no match at all.  Example: If you map! "qq",
+the first 'q' will not appear on the screen until you type another
+character.  This is because Vim cannot know if the next character will be a
+'q' or not.  If the 'timeout' option is on (which is the default) Vim will
+only wait for one second (or as long as specified with the 'timeoutlen'
+option).  After that it assumes that the 'q' is to be interpreted as such.  If
+you type slowly, or your system is slow, reset the 'timeout' option.  Then you
+might want to set the 'ttimeout' option.
+
+							*map-keys-fails*
+There is one situation where key codes might not be recognized:
+- Vim can only read part of the key code.  Mostly this is only the first
+  character.  This happens on some Unix versions in an xterm.
+- The key code is after character(s) that are mapped.  E.g., "<F1><F1>" or
+  "g<F1>".
+The result is that the key code is not recognized in this situation, and the
+mapping fails.
+There are two actions needed to avoid this problem:
+- Remove the 'K' flag from 'cpoptions'.  This will make Vim wait for the rest
+  of the characters of the function key.
+- When using <F1> to <F4> the actual key code generated may correspond to
+  <xF1> to <xF4>.  There are mappings from <xF1> to <F1>, <xF2> to <F2>, etc.,
+  but these are not recognized after another half a mapping.  Make sure the
+  key codes for <F1> to <F4> are correct: >
+	:set <F1>=<type CTRL-V><type F1>
+< Type the <F1> as four characters.  The part after the "=" must be done with
+  the actual keys, not the literal text.
+Another solution is to use the actual key code in the mapping for the second
+special key: >
+	:map <F1><Esc>OP :echo "yes"<CR>
+Don't type a real <Esc>, Vim will recognize the key code and replace it with
+<F1> anyway.
+
+						*recursive_mapping*
+If you include the {lhs} in the {rhs} you have a recursive mapping.  When
+{lhs} is typed, it will be replaced with {rhs}.  When the {lhs} which is
+included in {rhs} is encountered it will be replaced with {rhs}, and so on.
+This makes it possible to repeat a command an infinite number of times.  The
+only problem is that the only way to stop this is by causing an error.  The
+macros to solve a maze uses this, look there for an example.  There is one
+exception: If the {rhs} starts with {lhs}, the first character is not mapped
+again (this is Vi compatible).
+For example: >
+   :map ab abcd
+will execute the "a" command and insert "bcd" in the text.  The "ab" in the
+{rhs} will not be mapped again.
+
+If you want to exchange the meaning of two keys you should use the :noremap
+command.  For example: >
+   :noremap k j
+   :noremap j k
+This will exchange the cursor up and down commands.
+
+With the normal :map command, when the 'remap' option is on, mapping takes
+place until the text is found not to be a part of a {lhs}.  For example, if
+you use: >
+   :map x y
+   :map y x
+Vim will replace x with y, and then y with x, etc.  When this has happened
+'maxmapdepth' times (default 1000), Vim will give the error message
+"recursive mapping".
+
+							*:map-undo*
+If you include an undo command inside a mapped sequence, this will bring the
+text back in the state before executing the macro.  This is compatible with
+the original Vi, as long as there is only one undo command in the mapped
+sequence (having two undo commands in a mapped sequence did not make sense
+in the original Vi, you would get back the text before the first undo).
+
+							*:map-special-keys*
+There are three ways to map a special key:
+1. The Vi-compatible method: Map the key code.  Often this is a sequence that
+   starts with <Esc>.  To enter a mapping like this you type ":map " and then
+   you have to type CTRL-V before hitting the function key.  Note that when
+   the key code for the key is in the termcap (the t_ options), it will
+   automatically be translated into the internal code and become the second
+   way of mapping (unless the 'k' flag is included in 'cpoptions').
+2. The second method is to use the internal code for the function key.  To
+   enter such a mapping type CTRL-K and then hit the function key, or use
+   the form "#1", "#2", .. "#9", "#0", "<Up>", "<S-Down>", "<S-F7>", etc.
+   (see table of keys |key-notation|, all keys from <Up> can be used).  The
+   first ten function keys can be defined in two ways: Just the number, like
+   "#2", and with "<F>", like "<F2>".  Both stand for function key 2.  "#0"
+   refers to function key 10, defined with option 't_f10', which may be
+   function key zero on some keyboards.  The <> form cannot be used when
+   'cpoptions' includes the '<' flag.
+3. Use the termcap entry, with the form <t_xx>, where "xx" is the name of the
+   termcap entry.  Any string entry can be used.  For example: >
+     :map <t_F3> G
+<  Maps function key 13 to "G".  This does not work if 'cpoptions' includes
+   the '<' flag.
+
+The advantage of the second and third method is that the mapping will work on
+different terminals without modification (the function key will be
+translated into the same internal code or the actual key code, no matter what
+terminal you are using.  The termcap must be correct for this to work, and you
+must use the same mappings).
+
+DETAIL: Vim first checks if a sequence from the keyboard is mapped.  If it
+isn't the terminal key codes are tried (see |terminal-options|).  If a
+terminal code is found it is replaced with the internal code.  Then the check
+for a mapping is done again (so you can map an internal code to something
+else).  What is written into the script file depends on what is recognized.
+If the terminal key code was recognized as a mapping the key code itself is
+written to the script file.  If it was recognized as a terminal code the
+internal code is written to the script file.

+==============================================================================
+2. Abbreviations			*abbreviations* *Abbreviations*
+
+Abbreviations are used in Insert mode, Replace mode and Command-line mode.
+If you enter a word that is an abbreviation, it is replaced with the word it
+stands for.  This can be used to save typing for often used long words.  And
+you can use it to automatically correct obvious spelling errors.
+Examples:
+
+	:iab ms MicroSoft
+	:iab tihs this
+
+There are three types of abbreviations:
+
+full-id	  The "full-id" type consists entirely of keyword characters (letters
+	  and characters from 'iskeyword' option).  This is the most common
+	  abbreviation.
+
+	  Examples: "foo", "g3", "-1"
+
+end-id	  The "end-id" type ends in a keyword character, but all the other
+	  characters are not keyword characters.
+
+	  Examples: "#i", "..f", "$/7"
+
+non-id	  The "non-id" type ends in a non-keyword character, the other
+	  characters may be of any type, excluding space and Tab.  {this type
+	  is not supported by Vi}
+
+	  Examples: "def#", "4/7$"
+
+Examples of strings that cannot be abbreviations: "a.b", "#def", "a b", "_$r"
+
+An abbreviation is only recognized when you type a non-keyword character.
+This can also be the <Esc> that ends insert mode or the <CR> that ends a
+command.  The non-keyword character which ends the abbreviation is inserted
+after the expanded abbreviation.  An exception to this is the character <C-]>,
+which is used to expand an abbreviation without inserting any extra
+characters.
+
+Example: >
+   :ab hh	hello
+<	    "hh<Space>" is expanded to "hello<Space>"
+	    "hh<C-]>" is expanded to "hello"
+
+The characters before the cursor must match the abbreviation.  Each type has
+an additional rule:
+
+full-id	  In front of the match is a non-keyword character, or this is where
+	  the line or insertion starts.  Exception: When the abbreviation is
+	  only one character, it is not recognized if there is a non-keyword
+	  character in front of it, other than a space or a <Tab>.
+
+end-id	  In front of the match is a keyword character, or a space or a <Tab>,
+	  or this is where the line or insertion starts.
+
+non-id	  In front of the match is a space, <Tab> or the start of the line or
+	  the insertion.
+
+Examples: ({CURSOR} is where you type a non-keyword character) >
+   :ab foo   four old otters
+<		" foo{CURSOR}"	  is expanded to " four old otters"
+		" foobar{CURSOR}" is not expanded
+		"barfoo{CURSOR}"  is not expanded
+>
+   :ab #i #include
+<		"#i{CURSOR}"	  is expanded to "#include"
+		">#i{CURSOR}"	  is not expanded
+>
+   :ab ;; <endofline>"
+<		"test;;"	  is not expanded
+		"test ;;"	  is expanded to "test <endofline>"
+
+To avoid the abbreviation in insert mode: Type part of the abbreviation, exit
+insert mode with <Esc>, re-enter insert mode with "a" and type the rest.  Or
+type CTRL-V before the character after the abbreviation.
+To avoid the abbreviation in Command-line mode: Type CTRL-V twice somewhere in
+the abbreviation to avoid it to be replaced.  A CTRL-V in front of a normal
+character is mostly ignored otherwise.
+
+It is possible to move the cursor after an abbreviation: >
+   :iab if if ()<Left>
+This does not work if 'cpoptions' includes the '<' flag. |<>|
+
+You can even do more complicated things.  For example, to consume the space
+typed after an abbreviation: >
+   func Eatchar(pat)
+      let c = nr2char(getchar())
+      return (c =~ a:pat) ? '' : c
+   endfunc
+   iabbr <silent> if if ()<Left><C-R>=Eatchar('\s')<CR>
+
+There are no default abbreviations.
+
+Abbreviations are never recursive.  You can use ":ab f f-o-o" without any
+problem.  But abbreviations can be mapped.  {some versions of Vi support
+recursive abbreviations, for no apparent reason}
+
+Abbreviations are disabled if the 'paste' option is on.
+
+				*:abbreviate-local* *:abbreviate-<buffer>*
+Just like mappings, abbreviations can be local to a buffer.  This is mostly
+used in a |filetype-plugin| file.  Example for a C plugin file: >
+	:abb <buffer> FF  for (i = 0; i < ; ++i)
+<
+						*:ab* *:abbreviate*
+:ab[breviate]		list all abbreviations.  The character in the first
+			column indicates the mode where the abbreviation is
+			used: 'i' for insert mode, 'c' for Command-line
+			mode, '!' for both.  These are the same as for
+			mappings, see |map-listing|.
+
+:ab[breviate] {lhs}	list the abbreviations that start with {lhs}
+			You may need to insert a CTRL-V (type it twice) to
+			avoid that a typed {lhs} is expanded, since
+			command-line abbreviations apply here.
+
+:ab[breviate] {lhs} {rhs}
+			add abbreviation for {lhs} to {rhs}.  If {lhs} already
+			existed it is replaced with the new {rhs}.  {rhs} may
+			contain spaces.
+
+						*:una* *:unabbreviate*
+:una[bbreviate] {lhs}	Remove abbreviation for {lhs} from the list.  If none
+			is found, remove abbreviations in which {lhs} matches
+			with the {rhs}.  This is done so that you can even
+			remove abbreviations after expansion.  To avoid
+			expansion insert a CTRL-V (type it twice).
+
+						*:norea* *:noreabbrev*
+:norea[bbrev] [lhs] [rhs]
+			same as ":ab", but no remapping for this {rhs} {not
+			in Vi}
+
+						*:ca* *:cabbrev*
+:ca[bbrev] [lhs] [rhs]	same as ":ab", but for Command-line mode only.  {not
+			in Vi}

+:cuna[bbrev] {lhs}	same as ":una", but for Command-line mode only.  {not
+			in Vi}
+
+						*:cnorea* *:cnoreabbrev*
+:cnorea[bbrev] [lhs] [rhs]
+			same as ":ab", but for Command-line mode only and no
+			remapping for this {rhs} {not in Vi}
+
+						*:ia* *:iabbrev*

+			Vi}
+
+						*:inorea* *:inoreabbrev*
+:inorea[bbrev] [lhs] [rhs]
+			same as ":ab", but for Insert mode only and no
+			remapping for this {rhs} {not in Vi}
+
+							*:abc* *:abclear*
+:abc[lear]		Remove all abbreviations.  {not in Vi}
+
+							*:iabc* *:iabclear*
+:iabc[lear]		Remove all abbreviations for Insert mode.  {not in Vi}
+
+							*:cabc* *:cabclear*
+:cabc[lear]		Remove all abbreviations for Command-line mode.  {not
+			in Vi}
+
+							*using_CTRL-V*
+It is possible to use special characters in the rhs of an abbreviation.
+CTRL-V has to be used to avoid the special meaning of most non printable
+characters.  How many CTRL-Vs need to be typed depends on how you enter the
+abbreviation.  This also applies to mappings.  Let's use an example here.
+
+Suppose you want to abbreviate "esc" to enter an <Esc> character.  When you
+type the ":ab" command in Vim, you have to enter this: (here ^V is a CTRL-V
+and ^[ is <Esc>)
+
+You type:   ab esc ^V^V^V^V^V^[
+
+	All keyboard input is subjected to ^V quote interpretation, so
+	the first, third, and fifth ^V  characters simply allow the second,
+	and fourth ^Vs, and the ^[, to be entered into the command-line.
+
+You see:    ab esc ^V^V^[
+
+	The command-line contains two actual ^Vs before the ^[.  This is
+	how it should appear in your .exrc file, if you choose to go that
+	route.  The first ^V is there to quote the second ^V; the :ab
+	command uses ^V as its own quote character, so you can include quoted
+	whitespace or the | character in the abbreviation.   The :ab command
+	doesn't do anything special with the ^[ character, so it doesn't need
+	to be quoted.  (Although quoting isn't harmful; that's why typing 7
+	[but not 8!] ^Vs works.)
+
+Stored as:  esc     ^V^[
+
+	After parsing, the abbreviation's short form ("esc") and long form
+	(the two characters "^V^[") are stored in the abbreviation table.
+	If you give the :ab command with no arguments, this is how the
+	abbreviation will be displayed.
+
+	Later, when the abbreviation is expanded because the user typed in
+	the word "esc", the long form is subjected to the same type of
+	^V interpretation as keyboard input.  So the ^V protects the ^[
+	character from being interpreted as the "exit input-mode" character.
+	Instead, the ^[ is inserted into the text.
+
+Expands to: ^[

+==============================================================================
+3. Local mappings and functions				*script-local*
+
+When using several Vim script files, there is the danger that mappings and
+functions used in one script use the same name as in other scripts.  To avoid
+this, they can be made local to the script.
+
+						*<SID>* *<SNR>* *E81*
+The string "<SID>" can be used in a mapping or menu.  This requires that the
+'<' flag is not present in 'cpoptions'.
+   When executing the map command, Vim will replace "<SID>" with the special
+key code <SNR>, followed by a number that's unique for the script, and an
+underscore.  Example: >
+	:map <SID>Add
+could define a mapping "<SNR>23_Add".
+
+When defining a function in a script, "s:" can be prepended to the name to
+make it local to the script.  But when a mapping is executed from outside of
+the script, it doesn't know in which script the function was defined.  To
+avoid this problem, use "<SID>" instead of "s:".  The same translation is done
+as for mappings.  This makes it possible to define a call to the function in
+mapping.
+
+When a local function is executed, it runs in the context of the script it was
+defined in.  This means that new functions and mappings it defines can also
+use "s:" or "<SID>" and it will use the same unique number as when the
+function itself was defined.  Also, the "s:var" local script variables can be
+used.
+
+When executing an autocommand or a user command, it will run in the context of
+the script it was defined in.  This makes it possible that the command calls a
+local function or uses a local mapping.
+
+Otherwise, using "<SID>" outside of a script context is an error.
+
+If you need to get the script number to use in a complicated script, you can
+use this trick: >
+	:map <SID>xx <SID>xx
+	:let s:sid = maparg("<SID>xx")
+	:unmap <SID>xx
+And remove the trailing "xx".
+
+The "<SNR>" will be shown when listing functions and mappings.  This is useful
+to find out what they are defined to.
+
+The |:scriptnames| command can be used to see which scripts have been sourced
+and what their <SNR> number is.
+
+This is all {not in Vi} and {not available when compiled without the +eval
+feature}.
+
+==============================================================================
+4. User-defined commands				*user-commands*
+
+It is possible to define your own Ex commands. A user-defined command can act
+just like a built-in command (it can have a range or arguments, arguments can
+be completed as filenames or buffer names, etc), except that when the command
+is executed, it is transformed into a normal ex command and then executed.
+
+For starters: See section |40.2| in the user manual.
+
+						*E183* *user-cmd-ambiguous*
+All user defined commands must start with an uppercase letter, to avoid
+confusion with builtin commands. (There are a few builtin commands, notably
+:Next, :Print and :X, which do start with an uppercase letter.  The builtin
+will always take precedence in these cases).  The other characters of the user
+command can be uppercase letters, lowercase letters or digits.  When using
+digits, note that other commands that take a numeric argument may become
+ambiguous.  For example, the command ":Cc2" could be the user command ":Cc2"
+without an argument, or the command ":Cc" with argument "2".  It is advised to
+put a space between the command name and the argument to avoid these problems.
+
+When using a user-defined command, the command can be abbreviated. However, if
+an abbreviation is not unique, an error will be issued. Furthermore, a
+built-in command will always take precedence.
+
+Example: >
+	:command Rename ...
+	:command Renumber ...
+	:Rena				" Means "Rename"
+	:Renu				" Means "Renumber"
+	:Ren				" Error - ambiguous
+	:command Paste ...
+	:P				" The built-in :Print
+
+It is recommended that full names for user-defined commands are used in
+scripts.
+
+:com[mand]						*:com* *:command*
+			List all user-defined commands. When listing commands,
+			the characters in the first two columns are
+			    !	Command has the -bang attribute
+			    "	Command has the -register attribute
+			    b	Command is local to current buffer
+			(see below for details on attributes)
+
+:com[mand] {cmd}	List the user-defined commands that start with {cmd}
+
+							*E174* *E182*
+:com[mand][!] [{attr}...] {cmd} {rep}
+			Define a user command.  The name of the command is
+			{cmd} and its replacement text is {rep}. The command's
+			attributes (see below) are {attr}. If the command
+			already exists, an error is reported, unless a ! is
+			specified, in which case the command is redefined.
+
+:delc[ommand] {cmd}				*:delc* *:delcommand* *E184*
+			Delete the user-defined command {cmd}.
+
+:comc[lear]						*:comc* *:comclear*
+			Delete all user-defined commands.
+
+Command attributes
+
+User-defined commands are treated by Vim just like any other ex commands. They
+can have arguments, or have a range specified. Arguments are subject to
+completion as filenames, buffers, etc. Exactly how this works depends upon the
+command's attributes, which are specified when the command is defined.
+
+There are a number of attributes, split into four categories: argument
+handling, completion behavior, range handling, and special cases. The
