+  "Allow translation of all key sequences into commands.
+Normally, Viper lets Emacs translate only those ESC key sequences that are
+defined in the low-level key-translation-map or function-key-map, such as those
+emitted by the arrow and function keys. Other sequences, e.g., \\e/, are
+treated as ESQ command followed by a `/'. This is done for people who type fast
+and tend to hit other characters right after they hit ESC. Other people like
+Emacs to translate ESC sequences all the time. 
+The default is to translate all sequences only when using a dumb terminal.
+This permits you to use ESC as a meta key in insert mode."
