Can vim commands be mapped to key combinations with >1 modifier (e.g. ctrl-alt-v)

Question

Is it possible to map a vim command to a combination of keys involving more than one modifier? For example: ctrl-alt-v.

As far as I can tell, the only modifier key that can be used in combination with another is shift. e.g. <C-v> and <C-V>. Or am I missing something?

Answer 1

Yeah, you would map <C-A-v> or <C-M-v> (A, Alt, and M, Meta are equivalent concepts). See :help key-notation.

Answer 2

There's also this script (arpeggio) that allows you to use two or more simultaneously pressed keys (any keys, not just modifiers keys like shift, alt, etc.) in your mappings.

Answer 3

They can be combined just fine, like this for example: <C-M-v> maps CTRL-Alt-v.

Meta (Alt) is M, Shift is S, and CTRL is C.
