I was wondering why the backspace/delete button doesn't work properly when i'm using the vim editor on my mac. it deletes the chars in front of the index as oppose to behind it.
I am not a VIM user, there are probably some users here, but not likely oodles of people. I would go to Vim's home. It might also be better placed in the Applications Forum. You might wat to post at Vim's site. OS X VIM would be another place to look.
Perhaps if you toggled the insert/overwrite mode (esc?)- Then again, I am not I user, so I really don't know much.
