VIM - minimal help file
|
|
(NOTE: This is a minimal help file and many tags won't work. Use 'vim' or
|
|
'gvim' to read the complete help docs.)
|
|
k
|
|
Move around: Use the cursor keys, or "h" to go left, h l
|
|
"j" to go down, "k" to go up, "l" to go right. j
|
|
Close this window: Use ":q<Enter>".
|
|
Get out of Vim: Use ":qa!<Enter>" (careful, all changes are lost!).
|
|
|
|
Jump to a subject: Position the cursor on a tag between |bars| and hit CTRL-].
|
|
Jump back: Type CTRL-T or CTRL-O (repeat to go further back).
|
|
|
|
Get specific help: It is possible to go directly to whatever you want help
|
|
on, by giving an argument to the ":help" command |:help|.
|
|
It is possible to further specify the context:
|
|
*vi-help-context*
|
|
WHAT PREPEND EXAMPLE ~
|
|
Normal mode command (nothing) :help x
|
|
Insert mode command i_ :help i_<Esc>
|
|
Command-line command : :help :quit
|
|
Command-line editing c_ :help c_<Del>
|
|
Vim command argument - :help -r
|
|
Option ' :help 'textwidth'
|
|
Search for help: Type ":help word", then hit CTRL-D to see matching
|
|
help entries for "word".
|
|
|
|
VIM stands for Vi IMproved. Most of VIM was made by Bram Moolenaar, but only
|
|
through the help of many others. See |vi-credits|.
