Oh you're kidding!

The selection of ,, was based on one thing and one thing alone -- quick 
keyboard access with an easy finger. \\ is a reach with the little finger -- 
you might as well just use Emacs.

I was under the impression that the Debian package was created by Matej. Matej 
was one of the three original people on this mailing list. I can't imagine 
him changing ,, to \\ -- he knew exactly why it was ,, and I think he liked 
it that way.

As far as how to fix it, I think you'd take all places where "\\" is assigned 
to variable maplocalleader, and change the "\\" to ",,". You can find most of 
htem like this:

cd ~/.vim
grep -ir maplocalleader * | grep vo_

Also, change it in ~/.vimoutlinerrc.

Crude, but effective -- 15 minutes of work. You could probably even write a 
script to do it, so that every time you upgrade your Debian package, you can 
run your ,, restore.
