In Vim, I am ttempting the following remaps:
nnoremap <A-1> :make<CR>
inoremap <A-1> <Esc>:make<CR>i
Basically, I want to remap alt+1 to :make. However, this remap fails and I can't see why.
The map
nnoremap q :make<CR>
works. Why is that? Isn't < A-1> the proper way to describe alt+1?
Edit: I am using terminal vim.
