vip: Insert Mode
1.3.3 Insert Mode
-----------------
The key bindings in this mode is the same as in the emacs mode except
for the following 4 keys. So, you can move around in the buffer and
change its content while you are in insert mode.
‘<ESC>’
This key will take you back to vi mode.
‘C-h’
Delete previous character.
‘C-w’
Delete previous word.
‘C-z’
Typing this key has the same effect as typing <ESC> in emacs mode.
Thus typing ‘C-z x’ in insert mode will have the same effect as
typing ‘ESC x’ in emacs mode.
