If you're sailing on same ship I would love to hear from you. I'm making myself comfortable in Vim and hopefully this will be a successful attemp. ctrl w w will move the cursor in multiple split pane (if there are).ctrl/cmd T opens a fuzzy finder in the root of the project (Sublime Text 2 has this feature too.).\et or :tabe opens the file in new tab.\ev or :vsp opens the file in vertical split pane.\es or :sp opens the file in horizontal split pane.\ew or :e opens the file in current buffer.\n toggles the nerdTree on the left hand side.:wq saves changes and quits the current file.:q! quits the file and discard the changes.Ofcourse, They're available on the internet too. I've compiled the list for my quick reference. But, Not to forget Vim is not done until you know some required shortcuts. Square has open sourced their in house vim configuration more info hereīingo! I'm done with configuring vim with all the essential plugins out there within 3 steps.(BTW, my iTerm2 also has this same colorscheme) Fortunately, Janus has solarized built-in I just activated it. You should checkout solarized it has elegant colors which makes me feel nice while working. ![]() (Optional) Setting up a nice colorscheme is important.After installing macvim, I installed janus-bootstrap which automatically installs and configures required plugins.This is the basic setup I did to get started using Vim (on MacOSX) Setting up MacVim Until recently, I came across this great article by Yehuda Katz which convinced me to give Vim another good try. So, I stood beside Sublime Text 2 and it continued to be my IDE in that struggling period. I was learning couple of other new technologies where I didn't wanted them to suffer/compromise and avoided one more constrain on my brain to use Vim. However, I gave a try to switch to Vim few months back but the situation was too much demanding at that time. Since I've a PHP background (where I used to code on Netbeans) I was not motivated to use use on Terminal based editors. I've been using Sublime Text 2 since quite a while now and really enjoy spending my most of the time playing around code with it.
