Re: "Configuration tricks, tips, etc."

In: s/vim

I'm trying to weed myself off of the plugins like easymotion that allow you to jump to any character on screen in just a few taps. Instead, I've been trying to use search offsets more, so /foo/1 goes to the line after foo, or /foo/e+5 goes to 5 characters to the right of foo

@TheSpoonCarver Thanks for the tip. I didn't knew such a feature existed. I will check it out.

My favorites are:

gq - autoformat/wrap lines

di( or di{ or di< or di[ - deletes everything between braces

. - performs last editing action (macro)

q - sets macro

visual-mode - great for commenting out a block of code

And the best key sequence that I wish vim tutorials would cover is....

ctrl-c - It's the touch-typist friendly equivalent to esc.
