How to use the VIM editor

introducing the next Wim,Vim is a well -known, powerful, highly customizable text editor similar to VI, which improves and adds a lot of features on the basis of VI. VIM is purely free software.

Vim is generally respected as the best of the class Vi editor, in fact the real rivals come from different variants of Emacs. 1999 Emacs was selected as the winner of the LinuxWorld text editing category andVim was second. But in the year 2 , Vim won Slashdot Beanie 's best open source text editor Jackpot and pushed Emacs to the second line , on the whole , Vim and Emacs are also very good text editors.

The Wim is a modal editor with three modes:

Edit mode is also known as command mode

Input mode

Last-line mode

The function of each mode is not the same, when we open the text is in the editing mode, the following is how to go into the input mode in edit mode.

Edit mode----> Input mode:

I: Insert, into input mode

A: Append

O:

I: The beginning of the line

A: End of line

O: Up and down new CCB

Input mode----> Edit mode:

We cannot go directly from input mode to edit mode, we need to intervene the ESC key first.

Edit mode----> Last-line mode:

Moving from edit mode to the last line mode involves ":" To enter the last line mode.

Last-line mode----> Edit mode:

The ESC key can be entered from the last line mode to the edit mode, but vim cannot directly enter into the input mode from the last line mode, and must first go to edit mode in the input mode.

Open the VIM editor

There are two ways to open the VIM editor

#vim Open directly

#vim/etc/sysconfig/network//Follow the path name and need to open the file

To close the VIM editor:

#:q! Force quit, everything you do is not saved

#:wq//Save changes

Here's what VIM uses:

use VI to open the Install.log file in the current directory , using 6 Different instructions to enter the editing state ( Note that 6 different ways to enter the editing state, Where the cursor is located )
