您要求获得一些好的技巧来帮助您度过vi文本编辑器的学习曲线。以前的许多答案建议您不要使用其他编辑器。我认为这是一个很好的建议。从更图形化的编辑器切换到vi需要改变心态。它需要从命令的角度思考，而不是从视觉变化的角度。

I used nothing but vi for many years and believe the only way you can be productive is to memorize the commands you regularly use. The way I did this was to make a short list of the most common keyboard commands. I grouped and color-coded these commands by function, i.e. Moving the Cursor, Editing, Searching, etc. I was careful to only include the most commonly used commands I did not know. The idea is to create a quick reference that is also an aid in memorization – not to replace the available help screens. Then I printed this list and taped it to the wall behind my monitor so I could see it easily. (The graphical cheat sheets you mentioned might work better for some, but are probably a better reference source than a memorization tool.)

Here's the key. As I became comfortable with one of the commands, I drew a line through it with a pencil. I could still see it if I needed it, but it was symbolic to me that I had mastered that command. That gave me confidence and motivation as I could see regular progress. Once I had most of them crossed off, I removed them and added some of the more rarely used commands. I continued this process until I was satisfied with my command of vi. I knew I had reached that point when I realized I had not crossed off any commands or even looked at the list in a long time.

几年前，我需要在一个UNIX平台上工作，其中vi是唯一可用的编辑器。我买了一本关于vi的袖珍参考书，但几乎没用过。最后，我像第一次使用vi一样做了清单，并把它们贴在墙上。到第一周结束时，我感到非常舒服，尽管我已经有五年没有使用vi了。

你可以先从奶油开始。Cream将自己描述为vim的“现代配置”。基本上，它是vim的一个特殊版本，从所有实际目的来看，它的外观和感觉都与任何其他文本编辑器相似。但是启用“专家模式”，您就拥有了vim的所有功能和行为。

所以你可以开始使用奶油作为常规的文本编辑器，然后尝试“专家模式”，直到你足够舒服，完全切换到vim。

我的建议是:从小事做起。只要从记住一小部分最有用的命令开始。当我开始创建vi时，以下是我最喜欢的10个:

(Esc)返回命令模式(最重要!) 在光标后添加文本 在当前行的末尾添加文本 X删除1个字符 Dd删除一行 用R替换文本(覆盖) U撤销 :问!(Enter)不保存退出 :w(输入)保存 ZZ保存并退出

只需使用这些命令就可以完成许多基本的编辑工作。一旦你适应了，剩下的看起来就不太难了。

顺便说一句，我想补充一点，我曾经依赖vi作为我的主要文本编辑器，但现在只有在我不得不这样做的时候。就我而言，当我使用Emacs或Visual Studio这样的工具时，工作效率会更好(请注意:“在我的情况下”)。尝试不止一种工具，选择最能提高效率的那一种。好运！

如果你强迫自己使用几天，你会发现这些命令很快就变成了第二天性。如果您使用的是posix系统，我建议您从bsd许可的nvi开始，这是一个经典的1:1 vi克隆，然后转向vim。如果从vim开始，很可能只使用编辑命令的一个子集，因为它的INSERT模式非常类似于GUI编辑器。

虽然我是vi的忠实粉丝，特别是vim，但有很多功能强大的编辑器，你不应该觉得你必须使用vi，或者它在某种程度上是某种绝对完美的编辑器，因为它不是。

If you have to force yourself to use vi, I would be concerned that you don't feel productive using it. However, if you insist on persisting, I would probably just make sure I used vi for every single editing task. Whenever I need to do something and I don't quite no the best way to do it, I'd try to find the optimal (in terms of minimal keystrokes) to do it in vi after I did it a non-optimal normal way. I'd then make a post-it note with this little tip (or maybe just a text file) so I would remember it for next time.

随着时间的推移，您使用vi的效率将显著提高。
