bonus is that Ctrl-C gets you out of pretty much any mode. Also, while in insert mode, using ctrl-h for backspace and ctrl-w for delete word are really nice.

- ThatGeoGuy 11y agoBetter yet, ^[ is actually ESC in vi/vim, and works without a config change. I started using this last year and haven't looked back. ^C works well, but I recall it having some limitations in certain environments (though for the life of me I can't recall what they were). In any case, I prefer ^[ to ^C, and hopefully you will too!
