Inserting unusual characters in Vim
Using digraphs can speed up entering non-ascii characters.
Vim allows you enter that normally cannot be entered by a keyboard. For example to insert € (euro sign), type <kbd>Ctrl k e=</kbd> in the Insert mode.
Other examples:
- <kbd>Ctrl k e=</kbd> produces ½
- <kbd>Ctrl k y:</kbd> produces ű
To see the whole list type: :digraphs
