| 5 Vim is a very powerful editor that has many commands, too many to | |
| 6 explain in a tutor such as this. This tutor is designed to describe | |
| 7 enough of the commands that you will be able to easily use Vim as | |
| 8 an all-purpose editor. | |
| 9 | |
| 19968 | 10 The approximate time required to complete the tutor is 30 minutes, |
| 1624 | 11 depending upon how much time is spent with experimentation. |
| 12 | |
| 13 ATTENTION: | |
| 14 The commands in the lessons will modify the text. Make a copy of this | |
| 12499 | 15 file to practice on (if you started "vimtutor" this is already a copy). |
| 1624 | 16 |
| 17 It is important to remember that this tutor is set up to teach by | |
| 18 use. That means that you need to execute the commands to learn them | |
| 19 properly. If you only read the text, you will forget the commands! | |
| 20 | |
| 13231 | 21 Now, make sure that your Caps-Lock key is NOT depressed and press |
| 14347 | 22 the j key enough times to move the cursor so that lesson 1.1 |
| 1624 | 23 completely fills the screen. |

| 229 | |
| 230 | |
| 231 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 232 Lesson 2.3: ON OPERATORS AND MOTIONS | |
| 233 | |
| 234 | |
| 235 Many commands that change text are made from an operator and a motion. | |
| 236 The format for a delete command with the d delete operator is as follows: | |
| 237 | |
| 238 d motion | |
| 239 | |
| 240 Where: | |
| 241 d - is the delete operator. | |
| 242 motion - is what the operator will operate on (listed below). | |
| 243 | |
| 244 A short list of motions: | |
| 245 w - until the start of the next word, EXCLUDING its first character. | |
| 246 e - to the end of the current word, INCLUDING the last character. | |
| 247 $ - to the end of the line, INCLUDING the last character. | |
| 248 | |
| 249 Thus typing de will delete from the cursor to the end of the word. | |
| 250 | |
| 251 NOTE: Pressing just the motion while in Normal mode without an operator will | |
| 252 move the cursor as specified. | |
| 253 | |
| 254 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 255 Lesson 2.4: USING A COUNT FOR A MOTION | |
| 256 | |
| 257 | |
| 258 ** Typing a number before a motion repeats it that many times. ** | |
| 259 | |
| 14347 | 260 1. Move the cursor to the start of the line below marked --->. |
| 1624 | 261 |
| 262 2. Type 2w to move the cursor two words forward. | |
| 263 | |
| 264 3. Type 3e to move the cursor to the end of the third word forward. | |
| 265 | |
| 266 4. Type 0 (zero) to move to the start of the line. | |
| 267 | |
| 268 5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with different numbers. | |
| 269 | |
| 270 ---> This is just a line with words you can move around in. | |
| 271 | |
| 14347 | 272 6. Move on to lesson 2.5. |
| 1624 | 273 |
| 274 | |
| 275 | |
| 276 | |
| 277 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 278 Lesson 2.5: USING A COUNT TO DELETE MORE | |
| 279 | |
| 280 | |
| 281 ** Typing a number with an operator repeats it that many times. ** | |
| 282 | |
| 283 In the combination of the delete operator and a motion mentioned above you | |
| 284 insert a count before the motion to delete more: | |
| 285 d number motion | |
| 286 | |
| 287 1. Move the cursor to the first UPPER CASE word in the line marked --->. | |
| 288 | |
| 14347 | 289 2. Type d2w to delete the two UPPER CASE words. |
| 1624 | 290 |
| 291 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 with a different count to delete the consecutive | |
| 14347 | 292 UPPER CASE words with one command. |
| 1624 | 293 |
| 294 ---> this ABC DE line FGHI JK LMN OP of words is Q RS TUV cleaned up. | |
| 295 | |
| 296 | |
| 297 | |
| 298 | |
| 299 | |
| 300 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 301 Lesson 2.6: OPERATING ON LINES | |
| 302 | |
| 303 | |
| 304 ** Type dd to delete a whole line. ** | |
| 305 | |
| 306 Due to the frequency of whole line deletion, the designers of Vi decided | |
| 307 it would be easier to simply type two d's to delete a line. | |
| 308 | |
| 309 1. Move the cursor to the second line in the phrase below. | |
| 310 2. Type dd to delete the line. | |
| 311 3. Now move to the fourth line. | |
| 312 4. Type 2dd to delete two lines. | |
| 313 | |
| 314 ---> 1) Roses are red, | |
| 315 ---> 2) Mud is fun, | |
| 316 ---> 3) Violets are blue, | |
| 317 ---> 4) I have a car, | |
| 318 ---> 5) Clocks tell time, | |
| 319 ---> 6) Sugar is sweet | |
| 320 ---> 7) And so are you. | |
| 321 | |
| 22958 | 322 Doubling to operate on a line also works for operators mentioned below. |
| 1624 | 323 |
| 324 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 325 Lesson 2.7: THE UNDO COMMAND | |
| 326 | |
| 327 | |
| 328 ** Press u to undo the last commands, U to fix a whole line. ** | |
| 329 | |
| 330 1. Move the cursor to the line below marked ---> and place it on the | |
| 331 first error. | |
| 332 2. Type x to delete the first unwanted character. | |
| 333 3. Now type u to undo the last command executed. | |
| 334 4. This time fix all the errors on the line using the x command. | |
| 335 5. Now type a capital U to return the line to its original state. | |
| 336 6. Now type u a few times to undo the U and preceding commands. | |
| 337 7. Now type CTRL-R (keeping CTRL key pressed while hitting R) a few times | |
| 338 to redo the commands (undo the undo's). | |
| 339 | |
| 340 ---> Fiix the errors oon thhis line and reeplace them witth undo. | |
| 341 | |
| 14347 | 342 8. These are very useful commands. Now move on to the lesson 2 Summary. |

| 352 2. To delete from the cursor to the end of a line type: d$ | |
| 353 3. To delete a whole line type: dd | |
| 354 | |
| 355 4. To repeat a motion prepend it with a number: 2w | |
| 356 5. The format for a change command is: | |
| 357 operator [number] motion | |
| 358 where: | |
| 359 operator - is what to do, such as d for delete | |
| 360 [number] - is an optional count to repeat the motion | |
| 361 motion - moves over the text to operate on, such as w (word), | |
| 362 $ (to the end of line), etc. | |
| 363 | |
| 364 6. To move to the start of the line use a zero: 0 | |
| 365 | |
| 366 7. To undo previous actions, type: u (lowercase u) | |
| 367 To undo all the changes on a line, type: U (capital U) | |

| 474 motion takes you. eg. Type ce to change from the cursor to the end of | |
| 475 the word, c$ to change to the end of a line. | |
| 476 | |
| 477 4. The format for change is: | |
| 478 | |
| 479 c [number] motion | |
| 480 | |
| 481 Now go on to the next lesson. | |
| 482 | |
| 483 | |
| 484 | |
| 485 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 486 Lesson 4.1: CURSOR LOCATION AND FILE STATUS | |
| 487 | |
| 488 ** Type CTRL-G to show your location in the file and the file status. | |
| 489 Type G to move to a line in the file. ** | |
| 490 | |
| 491 NOTE: Read this entire lesson before executing any of the steps!! | |
| 492 | |
| 493 1. Hold down the Ctrl key and press g . We call this CTRL-G. | |
| 494 A message will appear at the bottom of the page with the filename and the | |
| 495 position in the file. Remember the line number for Step 3. | |
| 496 | |
| 497 NOTE: You may see the cursor position in the lower right corner of the screen | |
| 498 This happens when the 'ruler' option is set (see :help 'ruler' ) | |
| 499 | |
| 500 2. Press G to move you to the bottom of the file. | |
| 501 Type gg to move you to the start of the file. | |
| 502 | |
| 503 3. Type the number of the line you were on and then G . This will | |
| 504 return you to the line you were on when you first pressed CTRL-G. | |
| 505 | |
| 506 4. If you feel confident to do this, execute steps 1 through 3. | |
| 507 | |
| 508 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 509 Lesson 4.2: THE SEARCH COMMAND | |
| 510 | |
| 511 | |
| 512 ** Type / followed by a phrase to search for the phrase. ** | |
| 513 | |
| 514 1. In Normal mode type the / character. Notice that it and the cursor | |
| 515 appear at the bottom of the screen as with the : command. | |
| 516 | |
| 517 2. Now type 'errroor' <ENTER>. This is the word you want to search for. | |
| 518 | |
| 519 3. To search for the same phrase again, simply type n . | |
| 520 To search for the same phrase in the opposite direction, type N . | |
| 521 | |
| 522 4. To search for a phrase in the backward direction, use ? instead of / . | |
| 523 | |
| 524 5. To go back to where you came from press CTRL-O (Keep Ctrl down while | |
| 525 pressing the letter o). Repeat to go back further. CTRL-I goes forward. | |
| 526 | |
| 527 ---> "errroor" is not the way to spell error; errroor is an error. | |
| 528 NOTE: When the search reaches the end of the file it will continue at the | |
| 529 start, unless the 'wrapscan' option has been reset. | |
| 530 | |
| 531 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 532 Lesson 4.3: MATCHING PARENTHESES SEARCH | |
| 533 | |
| 534 | |
| 535 ** Type % to find a matching ),], or } . ** | |
| 536 | |
| 537 1. Place the cursor on any (, [, or { in the line below marked --->. | |
| 538 | |
| 539 2. Now type the % character. | |
| 540 | |
| 541 3. The cursor will move to the matching parenthesis or bracket. | |
| 542 | |
| 543 4. Type % to move the cursor to the other matching bracket. | |
| 544 | |
| 545 5. Move the cursor to another (,),[,],{ or } and see what % does. | |
| 546 | |
| 547 ---> This ( is a test line with ('s, ['s ] and {'s } in it. )) | |
| 548 | |
| 549 | |
| 550 NOTE: This is very useful in debugging a program with unmatched parentheses! | |
| 551 | |
| 552 | |
| 553 | |
| 554 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 555 Lesson 4.4: THE SUBSTITUTE COMMAND | |
| 556 | |
| 557 | |
| 558 ** Type :s/old/new/g to substitute 'new' for 'old'. ** | |
| 559 | |
| 560 1. Move the cursor to the line below marked --->. | |
| 561 | |
| 14347 | 562 2. Type :s/thee/the <ENTER> . Note that this command only changes the |
| 1624 | 563 first occurrence of "thee" in the line. |
| 564 | |
| 565 3. Now type :s/thee/the/g . Adding the g flag means to substitute | |
| 566 globally in the line, change all occurrences of "thee" in the line. | |
| 567 | |
| 568 ---> thee best time to see thee flowers is in thee spring. | |
| 569 | |
| 570 4. To change every occurrence of a character string between two lines, | |
| 571 type :#,#s/old/new/g where #,# are the line numbers of the range | |
| 572 of lines where the substitution is to be done. | |
| 573 Type :%s/old/new/g to change every occurrence in the whole file. | |
| 574 Type :%s/old/new/gc to find every occurrence in the whole file, | |
| 575 with a prompt whether to substitute or not. | |
| 576 | |
| 577 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 578 Lesson 4 SUMMARY | |
| 579 | |
| 580 | |
| 581 1. CTRL-G displays your location in the file and the file status. | |
| 582 G moves to the end of the file. | |
| 583 number G moves to that line number. | |
| 584 gg moves to the first line. | |
| 585 | |
| 586 2. Typing / followed by a phrase searches FORWARD for the phrase. | |
| 587 Typing ? followed by a phrase searches BACKWARD for the phrase. | |
| 588 After a search type n to find the next occurrence in the same direction | |
| 589 or N to search in the opposite direction. | |
| 590 CTRL-O takes you back to older positions, CTRL-I to newer positions. | |
| 591 | |
| 592 3. Typing % while the cursor is on a (,),[,],{, or } goes to its match. | |
| 593 | |
| 594 4. To substitute new for the first old in a line type :s/old/new | |
| 595 To substitute new for all 'old's on a line type :s/old/new/g | |
| 596 To substitute phrases between two line #'s type :#,#s/old/new/g | |
| 597 To substitute all occurrences in the file type :%s/old/new/g | |
| 598 To ask for confirmation each time add 'c' :%s/old/new/gc | |
| 599 | |
| 600 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 601 Lesson 5.1: HOW TO EXECUTE AN EXTERNAL COMMAND | |
| 602 | |
| 603 | |
| 604 ** Type :! followed by an external command to execute that command. ** | |
| 605 | |
| 606 1. Type the familiar command : to set the cursor at the bottom of the | |
| 607 screen. This allows you to enter a command-line command. | |
| 608 | |
| 609 2. Now type the ! (exclamation point) character. This allows you to | |
| 610 execute any external shell command. | |
| 611 | |
| 612 3. As an example type ls following the ! and then hit <ENTER>. This | |
| 613 will show you a listing of your directory, just as if you were at the | |
| 614 shell prompt. Or use :!dir if ls doesn't work. | |
| 615 | |
| 616 NOTE: It is possible to execute any external command this way, also with | |
| 617 arguments. | |
| 618 | |
| 619 NOTE: All : commands must be finished by hitting <ENTER> | |
| 620 From here on we will not always mention it. | |
| 621 | |
| 622 | |
| 623 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 624 Lesson 5.2: MORE ON WRITING FILES | |
| 625 | |
| 626 | |
| 14347 | 627 ** To save the changes made to the text, type :w FILENAME ** |
| 1624 | 628 |
| 629 1. Type :!dir or :!ls to get a listing of your directory. | |
| 630 You already know you must hit <ENTER> after this. | |
| 631 | |
| 632 2. Choose a filename that does not exist yet, such as TEST. | |
| 633 | |
| 634 3. Now type: :w TEST (where TEST is the filename you chose.) | |
| 635 | |
| 636 4. This saves the whole file (the Vim Tutor) under the name TEST. | |
| 637 To verify this, type :!dir or :!ls again to see your directory. | |
| 638 | |
| 639 NOTE: If you were to exit Vim and start it again with vim TEST , the file | |
| 640 would be an exact copy of the tutor when you saved it. | |
| 641 | |
| 14347 | 642 5. Now remove the file by typing (Windows): :!del TEST |
| 1624 | 643 or (Unix): :!rm TEST |
| 644 | |
| 645 | |
| 646 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 647 Lesson 5.3: SELECTING TEXT TO WRITE | |
| 648 | |

|
660 that you see :'<,'>w TEST before you press <ENTER>. |
| 1624 | 661 |
| 3847 | 662 5. Vim will write the selected lines to the file TEST. Use :!dir or :!ls |
| 1624 | 663 to see it. Do not remove it yet! We will use it in the next lesson. |
| 664 | |
| 665 NOTE: Pressing v starts Visual selection. You can move the cursor around | |
| 666 to make the selection bigger or smaller. Then you can use an operator | |
| 667 to do something with the text. For example, d deletes the text. | |
| 668 | |
| 669 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 670 Lesson 5.4: RETRIEVING AND MERGING FILES | |
| 671 | |
| 672 | |
| 673 ** To insert the contents of a file, type :r FILENAME ** | |
| 674 | |
| 675 1. Place the cursor just above this line. | |
| 676 | |
| 14347 | 677 NOTE: After executing Step 2 you will see text from lesson 5.3. Then move |
| 1624 | 678 DOWN to see this lesson again. |
| 679 | |
| 680 2. Now retrieve your TEST file using the command :r TEST where TEST is | |
| 681 the name of the file you used. | |
| 682 The file you retrieve is placed below the cursor line. | |
| 683 | |
| 684 3. To verify that a file was retrieved, cursor back and notice that there | |
| 14347 | 685 are now two copies of lesson 5.3, the original and the file version. |
| 1624 | 686 |
| 687 NOTE: You can also read the output of an external command. For example, | |
| 688 :r !ls reads the output of the ls command and puts it below the | |
| 689 cursor. | |
| 690 | |
| 691 | |
| 692 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 693 Lesson 5 SUMMARY | |
| 694 | |
| 695 | |
| 696 1. :!command executes an external command. | |
| 697 | |
| 698 Some useful examples are: | |
| 14347 | 699 (Windows) (Unix) |
| 1624 | 700 :!dir :!ls - shows a directory listing. |
| 701 :!del FILENAME :!rm FILENAME - removes file FILENAME. | |
| 702 | |
| 703 2. :w FILENAME writes the current Vim file to disk with name FILENAME. | |
| 704 | |
| 705 3. v motion :w FILENAME saves the Visually selected lines in file | |
| 706 FILENAME. | |
| 707 | |
| 708 4. :r FILENAME retrieves disk file FILENAME and puts it below the | |
| 709 cursor position. | |
| 710 | |
| 711 5. :r !dir reads the output of the dir command and puts it below the | |
| 712 cursor position. | |

| 855 Lesson 7.1: GETTING HELP | |
| 856 | |
| 857 | |
| 858 ** Use the on-line help system ** | |
| 859 | |
| 860 Vim has a comprehensive on-line help system. To get started, try one of | |
| 861 these three: | |
| 862 - press the <HELP> key (if you have one) | |
| 863 - press the <F1> key (if you have one) | |
| 864 - type :help <ENTER> | |
| 865 | |

| 871 ":help" command. Try these (don't forget pressing <ENTER>): | |
| 872 | |
| 873 :help w | |
| 874 :help c_CTRL-D | |
| 875 :help insert-index | |
| 876 :help user-manual | |
| 877 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 878 Lesson 7.2: CREATE A STARTUP SCRIPT | |
| 879 | |
| 880 | |
| 881 ** Enable Vim features ** | |
| 882 | |
| 883 Vim has many more features than Vi, but most of them are disabled by | |
| 884 default. To start using more features you have to create a "vimrc" file. | |
| 885 | |
| 886 1. Start editing the "vimrc" file. This depends on your system: | |
| 887 :e ~/.vimrc for Unix | |
| 14347 | 888 :e $VIM/_vimrc for Windows |
| 1624 | 889 |
| 890 2. Now read the example "vimrc" file contents: | |
| 891 :r $VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim | |
| 892 | |
| 893 3. Write the file with: | |
| 894 :w | |
| 895 | |
| 896 The next time you start Vim it will use syntax highlighting. | |
| 897 You can add all your preferred settings to this "vimrc" file. | |
| 898 For more information type :help vimrc-intro | |

| 901 Lesson 7.3: COMPLETION | |
| 902 | |
| 903 | |
| 904 ** Command line completion with CTRL-D and <TAB> ** | |
| 905 | |
| 906 1. Make sure Vim is not in compatible mode: :set nocp | |
| 907 | |
| 908 2. Look what files exist in the directory: :!ls or :!dir | |
| 909 | |
| 910 3. Type the start of a command: :e | |
| 911 | |
| 912 4. Press CTRL-D and Vim will show a list of commands that start with "e". | |
| 913 | |
| 14347 | 914 5. Type d<TAB> and Vim will complete the command name to ":edit". |
| 1624 | 915 |
| 916 6. Now add a space and the start of an existing file name: :edit FIL | |
| 917 | |
| 918 7. Press <TAB>. Vim will complete the name (if it is unique). | |
| 919 | |
| 920 NOTE: Completion works for many commands. Just try pressing CTRL-D and | |
| 921 <TAB>. It is especially useful for :help . | |
| 922 | |
