great dude
thanks very much
Thanks so much! Great video!
My buddy’s really into this, and this will help me kick C++ ***! Yeah!
Great tuto, thanks!
ok thats good….but if you are programmer, you will need many tool
Oh yeah, I am a noob, because I don’t use a tool that is unintuitive as it can get.
what a noob…..
This is a great video. Thanks!
Excellent, easy to follow tutorial and just to try it out I’m typing this response using Vim, I’ve had it on my Ubuntu install for ages and spent moretime trying to decide between Vim and Emacs than actually learning either one. Guess you just swung it! Now, how do I copy this????
very nice!…simple and direct…exactly what I was looking for in an introduction.
Because in UNIX vi/vim is often the available/installed editor. if you don’t have access to those other editors, what do you do? learn it mate. You’ll be doing yourself a favour.
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow, I know I will sound like a troll, but really why would go the trouble of learning all those key combinations in command mode, if I can easily do the same functionality with the modifier keys (ctrl, shift alt) in other more intuitive editors?
Good tutorial. I like to learn it by actually seeing it done rather than trying to memorize a bunch of commands.
Thanks for a great tutorial and handy tips. I’ve wanted to learn vi for ages, but was overwhelmed by all the option. This vid takes the edge off.
thanks excellent
Excellent tuturial.
badass, i’ve been using vim on linux for a couple years but now that someone actually showed me how to use it my whole world just changed. you just blew my friggin mind!
thanks man!
