There's nothing that hard-core Unix and Linux users are more fanatical
about than their text editor. Editors are the subject of adoration and
worship, or of scorn and ridicule, depending upon whether the topic of
discussion is your editor or someone else's. vi has been the standard
editor for close to 30 years. Popular on Unix and Linux, it has a
growing following on Windows systems, too. Most experienced system
administrators cite vi as their tool of choice. And since 1986, this
book has been the guide for vi. However, Unix systems are not what they
were 30 years ago, and neither is this book. While retaining all the
valuable features of previous editions, the 7th edition of Learning the
vi and vim Editors has been expanded to include detailed information on
vim, the leading vi clone. vim is the default version of vi on most
Linux systems and on Mac OS X, and is available for many other operating
systems too. With this guide, you learn text editing basics and advanced
tools for both editors, such as multi-window editing, how to write both
interactive macros and scripts to extend the editor, and power tools for
programmers -- all in the easy-to-follow style that has made this book a
classic. Learning the vi and vim Editors includes: A complete
introduction to text editing with vi: How to move around vi in a hurry
Beyond the basics, such as using buffers vi's global search and
replacement Advanced editing, including customizing vi and executing
Unix commands How to make full use of vim: Extended text objects and
more powerful regular expressions Multi-window editing and powerful vim
scripts How to make full use of the GUI version of vim, called gvim
vim's enhancements for programmers, such as syntax highlighting, folding
and extended tags Coverage of three other popular vi clones -- nvi,
elvis, and vile -- is also included. You'll find several valuable
appendixes, including an alphabetical quick reference to both vi and ex
mode commands for regular vi and for vim, plus an updated appendix on vi
and the Internet. Learning either vi or vim is required knowledge if you
use Linux or Unix, and in either case, reading this book is essential.
After reading this book, the choice of editor will be obvious for you
too.
