# Intro to Vim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Intro to Vim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Why I use Vim
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Was using too many tools
|
||||||
|
* Sublime Text 2 for editing
|
||||||
|
* Putty for SSH
|
||||||
|
* git bash for git
|
||||||
|
* Cygwin for Rubt commands
|
||||||
|
* Can mostly be done in ST2, but with time invested. Restart with Vim
|
||||||
|
* "nerd cred"
|
||||||
|
* More importantly, server administration
|
||||||
|
* Vim (or vi) works **everywhere**, no matter how broken the machine is
|
||||||
|
* (emacs does not)
|
||||||
|
* Repetitive Strain injury - vim helps enforce better habbits
|
||||||
|
* After 20 years, people are still using it
|
||||||
|
* You have to decide what works for you
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Everyone's first Vim session
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Bash.org joke
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## But how can we avoid this
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* vimtutor - 30-45 minutes is enough to gain usability
|
||||||
|
* VIM Adventures - game that finally pushed me into learning
|
||||||
|
* Cheat Sheet - I still keep one printed off on a wall
|
||||||
|
* Focus on a small set - I picked five that I wrote down and learned each week
|
||||||
|
* and still do from time to time
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## You will still struggle
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Some of the things I struggled with
|
||||||
|
* Copy and paste - very different idea, more later (and more advanced)
|
||||||
|
* Not using a mouse - if you don't plan on this, Vim is not for you
|
||||||
|
* Getting to the end of the line example
|
||||||
|
* I used shift+A<ESC> instead of $ for months
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Vim is a modal editor
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* TODO
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## You can move around
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Focus on home row. h, l to go left and right, j, k to go up and down
|
||||||
|
* Arrow keys are bad. Require awkward hand movements.
|
||||||
|
* Variants can get you around the screen faster.
|
||||||
|
* Screen: H, M, L
|
||||||
|
* Document: gg, G, :50
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## And do things
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* insert is a complete mode switch to let you type text, leave with <ESC>
|
||||||
|
* delete, change, yank act on things
|
||||||
|
* All of them put affected text into a place that can be pasted from
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## On objects
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Everything is an object in Vim.
|
||||||
|
* Learning to utilize these is the key to effective vim use
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## That can be modified
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* inside - excludes the surrounding part of the object
|
||||||
|
* around - includes the surrounding part of the object
|
||||||
|
* till - from cursor to the specific character
|
||||||
|
* find - the same as till except for including the specific character
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## And finally combined into a language
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* das - includes the spaces. dis would not include the space after
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Example stuff TBD
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Other Talks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Ben Orenstein - one of my favorite speakers. more intermediate than beginner
|
||||||
|
* Note comment on saving keystrokes
|
||||||
|
* Damian Conway - More advanced and neat plugins
|
||||||
|
* Chris Hunt - Shows basics of using Vim in combination with Tmux
|
||||||
|
* I do this
