#### Change cursor style in insert mode
#### Change cursor style dependent on mode
I like to use a block cursor in normal mode, i-beam cursor in insert mode, and
underline cursor in replace mode. Also when using tmux in the middle.

#### Change cursor style dependent on mode
The method mentioned in the [Vim
section](../README.md#change-cursor-style-dependent-on-mode) doesn't work in
Neovim. Instead, define the environment variable `NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_CURSOR_SHAPE`
either in your shell config or in your vimrc:
```vim
if has('nvim')
let $NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_CURSOR_SHAPE = 1
endif
```
