Ok, got this cloned and installed. If I'm moving from Sublime to vim, where do I go now?
I know a few basic vim commands (switch modes, edit, write, quit) but have never used it to work on a complete project in a directory.
- jessedhillon 13y agoTry vimtutor before you begin with these plugins. You'll learn a lot of basic motions and also get the feel for how to speak vim, combine motions with count arguments, etc.
- wavesounds 13y agoType vimtutor at the command line to get started. Theres also a game: http://vim-adventures.com http://vim-adventures.com I thought was fun
- semiel 13y agoI'm sure that most people, like I at first did, are wondering how useful a game could really be. Answer: Very, very useful. I think Vim Adventures was a way better headstart for me to learn the Vim style of thinking than pretty much anything else could be.
- avjinder 13y agoTry Drew Neill's book- Practical Vim. It's the best vim book I have read. There is just so much information packed into that book, it's astounding. It made me go from a vim beginner to a vim semi-expert.
- johncoltrane 13y agoStart by deleting that crap, then run $ vimtutor until you are comfortable, read :help carefully, try your hands on simple tasks first then augment the complexity… after a couple of months you'll be as productive as before or more and, maybe, ready to do the actual switch. In the mean time, keep using ST on your projects.
