map K 070lBhxi^M^[J
repeatedly to join all sentences of a paragraph together. Then useK
to split them apart.Notes:
- To enter the
^M
, precede with^V
. Same for the^[
(escape).- To function properly, have these set:

(autoindent)- You can change the length from

to any value that best suits your needs.- Once tested, you can put this mapping in your

file or as part of yourEXINIT
environment string.
