title: cursor keys not functioning properly in vim
body: <p>I open my terminal and use Vim to open a new or old program, but after I click <kbd>i</kbd> to go into insert mode, my cursor keys and backspace key are not functioning properly. The backspace key just moves the pointer. The cursor keys spawn A and B, or just cause other chaos.</p>
  
  <p>This just happened out of nowhere and it just does crazy things. Does anybody know what’s wrong, or if my terminal is just on the fritz? I tried completely removing Cygwin from my computer and re-installed it, but that did not correct the issue. </p>
