Emacs Describe Key in vim

Is there any feature in Vim which shows me what a keyboard shortcut is bound to in the current context? Something like describe-key in emacs.

I'm trying to find out which keys i can safely rebind and which are bound to something useful.

Solution

  • If your key is manually mapped, you can check the mapping by evoking:

    :map <keys>

    if it is not, then you can check the manual:

    :help <keys>
