Replace command

The RA replaces the current character with a, when the period character is the character of the cursor.

s/old/new/replace new with old, replacing the first match of the current row

s/old/new/g replace new with old, replacing all occurrences of the current row

%s/old/new/replace new with old, replacing the first match of all rows

%s/old/new/g replace new with old, replacing all occurrences of the entire file

Move command

H move one character to the left
L Move one character to the right, this command is seldom used and is usually replaced by W.
K Move up one character
J Move down one character
The above four commands can be used with the number, such as 20J is to move down 20 lines, 5h is to move 5 characters to the left, in vim, many commands can be used with the number, such as delete 10 characters 10x, after the current position after inserting 3! , 3a! <esc>, the ESC here is required, otherwise the command does not take effect.

W moves forward one word (the cursor stops at the beginning of the word), and if it is at the end of the line, go to the start of the next line. This command is fast and can replace the L command.

b Move backward one word 2b move backwards 2 words

E, with W, except that the cursor stops at the tail of the word.
