Its so rough watching non vimmers use vim

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At my job I wrote a lengthy document on how to use vim, like the core concepts of the hot keys (each key has a meaning behind it, text objects and such). I feel like everyone was happy about it but no one used it at all. It's painful as hell to see them fumble on vi and vim.

You can share it at !vim@sopuli.xyz I'm sure people (me included) would love to use it

  • Using “cmd+f” to search terminal buffers instead of /
  • Using :wqa! and then reopening the editor instead of just using :w
  • Deleting an entire line by hitting x repeatedly
  • Adding to the end of a like by pressing i and then the right arrow key until they're at the end of a line
