This article to share with you is about vim editor of several modes, Xiaobian think quite practical, so share to everyone to learn, I hope you can read this article after some harvest, not much to say, follow Xiaobian to see it.

Vim is a text editor developed from vi. Code completion, compilation and error jumping are particularly rich in convenient programming features, and are widely used by programmers, ranking alongside Emacs as the favorite text editor for Unix-like system users.

The vim design concept is a combination of commands. Users who learn a variety of move/jump commands between text and other normal mode editing commands, and can flexibly combine them, can edit text more efficiently than editors without modes. At the same time, VIM is similar to many shortcut key settings and regular expressions, which can assist memory. And vim is optimized for programmers.
