The first thing you'll want to know how to do in Vim is actually edit text, obviously. I mean, if a text editor can't edit text, what good is it? This is the most important video for learning to use Vim, although hopefully it won't be the only one you watch.

  • Nice...can you tell me the theme you have installed :) thx.

  • @Azzurriio I think it was just "Dust" back then. I did a little rounding of the corners with Emerald. I can't remember completely; I've changed the way my computer's laid out so much since then.

  • Keep making more of these videos. :)

  • @Devourer09

    Will do, chief!

    Once I'm done with the tutorial, which will teach the basic vim commands and how to make macros, I'll also start a Vim Tips series that teaches some more exotic features like folding and .vimrc.

  • Good. :) I should probably upload my .vimrc somewhere. Do you know if a browser-based Vim clone exists?

  • gpl . internetconnection . net/vi/
