vi and Vim are immensely powerful tools for anyone working with Unix, Linux, or Mac OS X, but there are far too many commands for anyone to remember. Author Arnold Robbins (vi and Vim Editors in a Nutshell) has chosen the most important and valuable commands for vi, Vim, and their main clones -- vile, elvis, and nvi -- and packed them into this convenient pocket reference. Fully updated and with greatly expanded Vim coverage, this handy little book puts all of the essential information about vi and Vim at your fingertips, in a format that makes browsing easy. You'll find commands to help you program, fix important system files, work on articles and other texts that use mark-up, and do any other kind of text editing. vi and Vim Editors Pocket Reference includes: * Command-line options * Command mode commands * Ex commands and options * Regular expressions * Other pertinent information for using vi and Vim * Additional features in vile, elvis, and nvi
