Breaks CTRL-X Mode

I'm using gvim on Windows. I used Vundle to install the plugin from here. When this plugin is loaded, if I try to enter ^X mode by pressing CTRL-X in INSERT mode, it immediately exits back into the general INSERT mode. If I comment out the line Plugin 'vim-scripts/vim-auto-save' and change it to " Plugin 'vim-scripts/vim-auto-save' then I can enter and stay in ^X mode. I'm not completely familiar with VimL for plugins otherwise I would try toggling some of the g: variables. Could you tell me if there is any fix for this?

@waivek Thanks for reporting it! This happens because we use au CursorHoldI * ... callback. As a temporary solution you may disable the plugin in insert mode (it will still work in normal mode) with:

" .vimrc
let g:auto_save_in_insert_mode = 0
