.SH USAGE NOTES
.IP o
When using
-.PN vnelvis
+.B vnelvis
in conjunction with
-.MS vnterm 1V ,
+.B vnterm 1V ,
remember to turn off keyboard processing by
either
-.PN vnelvis
+.B vnelvis
or
-.PN vnterm ,
+.B vnterm ,
otherwise the results of your keypresses going
through two Vietnamese filters may be somewhat
confusing.
.IP o
-.PN vnelvis
+.B vnelvis
is currently the only alternative that
would correctly handle the six Vietnamese characters
"A(? A(~ A^~ Y? Y~ Y." as they are coded in
the C0 control area. For best results when
using
-.PN vnelvis
+.B vnelvis
and
-.PN vnterm ,
+.B vnterm ,
it is recommended that you turn on
-.PN vnelvis 's
+.B vnelvis 's
keyboard filter (:set vnkeys)
and turn off
-.PN vnterm 's
+.B vnterm 's
keyboard filtering. This will ensure that
Vietnamese characters are generated only in
input mode when you typically really want them.
.IP o
On the other hand,
if you prefer leaving
-.PN vnterm 's
+.B vnterm 's
or
-.PN vietterm 's
+.B vietterm 's
keyboard filtering on and turn off
-.PN vnelvis 's
+.B vnelvis 's
keyboard filter, you may find commands such as
"dd" (delete line) awkward, because
the "dd" is converted first to the Vietnamese
character "d-bar" before it is sent to
-.PN vnelvis.
+.B vnelvis.
Therefore you must either type "d\\d"
to prevent the composition action, or
use the "qq" sequence which has been
implemented in
-.PN vnelvis
+.B vnelvis
as a substitute for "dd".
