And here I was undoing and redoing the entire time.
- protomikron 10y agoHa, I do the same - you always learn something new in vim. For me the biggest boost in Vim was configuring the shell (i.e. readline via .inputrc) to use my vim key bindings, so I can use it without arrow keys. Not because of efficiency, but more for wrists comfort. Furthermore I am in the camp of mapping ESC to 'jj'. My index finger has more power and using the pinky (e.g. via CAPS or ESC) is too exhausting for me.
- taneq 10y agoHah, me too. Also yank-then-undo instead of finding out how to actually select and copy text. Meh whatever, it works, and the amount of time I spend in vim these days is so minimal that I doubt it's worth it to retrain.
