Vim
8.2.1651
is the current version |
old but still useful videos
[2020-07-10]
Not much news has appeared here for a while, so let's dig up some old stuff!
The talk about Vim's 25th birthday can be found here. It gives a nice overview of how Vim became what it is now.
A much older talk, but about stuff that never gets old is 7 Habits For Effective Text Editing. Anybody who spends more than an hour a day editing text should watch it.
I recently discovered a University lecture about Vim here. It's amazing how many Vim tutorials can be found on Youtube. (Bram Moolenaar)

To show it off a silly game was created.
Happy Vimming! (Bram Moolenaar)
