Description

In this course I'll teach you to use Vim, one of the most powerful text editors out there. Vi and Vim come installed by default on most Linux distributions.

Vim makes you faster and more productive - you never have to move your hands away from the keyboard as all Vim commands can be issued from the keyboard alone. Vim has also more than 26 registers to save text to, as opposed to only one clipboard of your operating system.

We'll also learn how to install Vim plugins to change its appearance and behavior.
