As a programmer I spend a lot of hours at the keyboard and I've been doing it for the last 12 years, more or less. If there's something I've never gotten used to during all this time, it's these annoying and almost unconscious constant micro-interruptions I experience while coding, due to some of the most common code editing tasks. Things like a simple copy & paste from a different line (or even the same line), or moving 1 or 2 lines up or down from the current position require too much typing or involve the use of the arrow keys ...and it gets worse when I want to move further - I end up using the mouse. Now imagine this same scenario but on a laptop.
我一直在考虑学习VIM，但掌握它所需的时间总是让我想后退一步。
我想听听那些学会了它的人的意见，如果它最终成为你生活中不可或缺的东西之一。
在工作中，我使用VS2008, c#和r#，它们一起使编辑代码比以前更快更容易，但即使如此，我认为我可以享受根本不需要使用鼠标。
甚至连方向键都没有。
I'd say vim is definitely worth learning. I picked it up last summer, and it is now my editor of choice for just about everything (java is a stretch, but doable when I don't need extensive analysis support). As everyone has already affirmed, it is a wonderfully efficient tool.
For what it's worth, I only learned a fairly small subset of vim's features (which took a day or two) from a graphical tutorial, and a few odds and ends from here (long read), and the search and replace functionality, and I was hooked. I've learned things since then, but at my leisure. I'd say the learning curve flattens out at this point, but then, I was using it pretty heavily and was surrounded by others who were, too.
这绝对是值得努力的。
使用Vi(m)的人会告诉您一个明显的原因，还有两个原因人们似乎从来没有提到过。
这是一个显而易见的例子:
Vi无处不在，功能强大得令人难以置信，通过学习一次，您就可以在几乎任何有键盘的计算机上使用这种功能。
下面是学习Vim的一些鲜为人知的原因:
It's not half as much effort as you think it's going to be. Run through the Vim tutor once (vimtutor at a shell, or in Windows run it from the Vim folder in the Start Menu), and you'll already be well on your way to competence, and it's all downhill from there. I was up to the level where I could use Vim at work without taking any noticeable productivity hit within less than a week's worth of lunchtimes.
It's fun! Editing text is like a game to me now. I actively enjoy it--which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about it.
还有两个不学习Vim的好理由:
它会让人上瘾，你会发现自己希望在所有的计算中都能使用Vim命令，而每当不能使用时就会诅咒。幸运的是，至少在某些情况下，有一些方法可以绕过这个问题。
同样，它会让人上瘾，尽管您不会因为实际使用Vim而失去任何生产力，但您将浪费数小时搜索使您的Vim体验更好的好提示，并阅读Stack Overflow上的Vim标签。
要快速学习vi(m)，首先必须理解整个设计。
Vim有一组很棒的光标移动命令，检查一些(X是一个字符，#是一个数字):
J k进入箭头
0美元
w w b b
ctrolD crtolU
ctrolE ctrolY
H m l
fX fX tX tX，;
％
gg G
n n
mX 'X”
还有很多，要一一列举是很无聊的。其中许多工具都支持在命令之前添加计数，比如用4j向上移动4行。
现在，回到设计中，键入一个命令，如d，用于删除，然后移动光标，该命令应用于从光标位置到移动结束的文本段。例如，H移动到屏幕顶部，dH删除到屏幕顶部，cH更改(替换)到屏幕顶部。
这个设计很强大。它还可以减少或组织你需要学习的内容。
毫无疑问，第一步是学习一些光标移动命令。比如说，一开始是8到10个。那么你就差不多完成了。
