" For some reason, in my current install, C-Y is mapped to C-R (redo)

" map alt-} to search forward to the end of the next open tag

" Note that I need to *double* backslash the alternation

"
" To get the alt-}, use the following sequence <C-q><A-}>
"
map Ý />[[:alpha:]<]\\|<\/<CR>

" easier escapes to command mode 
" 
"
" The double-tap on i is a little dangerous because
" if I'm in normal mode but think I'm in insert mode,
" I can accidentally put myself in insert by taking an
" action which I think will escape me . . . :-P
" Recommend that, after I get facile with the other escapes,
" I turn this one off . . . and turning it off.
