FOO example does not work as expected

[arnoro]

After activating the FOO mode, I can enter a or d, but the commands to create a new tab or close a tab are not executed until I press ESC to exit the mode.

Do you have Neovim? I don't really support this plugin anymore but nvim-libmodal is still maintained

I suspect it has to do with something in Vim's event loop. Not sure from a glance; I only ever used this plugin with Neovim (and then later rewrote it for Neovim)

[arnoro]

No, I don't use Neovim. I use Vim version 8.2.
I just tried vim-win and there it works.

[Iron-E]

Does vim-tabmode also work? vim-win doesn't use vim-libmodal. I expect you'll find a similar issue there, but if not that could be good insight

[arnoro]

I have the same problem with vim-tabmode.

[Iron-E]

Darn. All I can really say is that you should consider using the Neovim version, which is mostly backwards compatible and works like a charm.

I'll leave the issue open anyway, just to show others it is a problem.
