I never found the keymap cheat sheets useful. It tells me what happens if I press a certain key, but what I need is the reverse. Tell we what key to press if I want X to happen.
When using a cheat sheet like that I waste a lot of time scouring the image looking for text relating to the type of operation I want. I'd rather have a list of options grouped by operation type.
- manaskarekar 14y agoIt is organized by types of cheats. It's more of a tutorial that aims to familiarize you with available features comprehensively. Once you kind of get an idea of what options are available, lookup is a little easier. This is definitely not the best cheatsheet for hanging above your computer, but more to be read as a tutorial. (Calling it a cheatsheet would be a stretch in this case.) For your purposes (and what I do quite a bit anyway), google is the best cheatsheet.
- pbarnett 14y agoI have a deck of flashcards in Anki to help learn vim bindings in a way similar to what you're looking for. The flashcards are designed so the front is a description of some operation (ex. "motion cursor to end of the line" or "backward find word under cursor") and the back is the key combo to make that operation happen. It works really well for me and I've noticed a huge improvement to my productivity in vim.
