I mapped kj instead. Can't remember why, but I like it that way.

Unfortunately both of those are used in common English or computer words. The only letter pairs not used are: bq, bx, cf, cj, dx, fq, fx, fz, hx, jb, jc, jf, jg, jq, jv, jx, jz, kq, kz, mx, px, qc, qd, qg, qh, qj, qk, ql, qm, qn, qp, qq, qr, qt, qv, qx, qy, qz, sx, tx, vb, vc, vf, vj, vm, vq, vw, vx, wq, wx, xj, zx.

Personally I have mappings based on <CR>, and press it twice to get a real newline.

I guess I just don't write "blackjack and hookers" often enough. Sigh, I'll never make a good Redditor.

Funny, I've never actually had "kj" interrupt me in vim. Maybe once. It's a funny way of realising I've never written certain words in vim!
