CONQUER the world with Vim & Tmux! @ferdev
HI! I’m @ferdev and i work at vizzuality
1. Why Vim? 2. The Path to Vim. 3. Using
Vim. 4. Mastering Vim. 5. Tmux
VIM
1. Why Vim?
Textmate, Eclipse, NetBeans, Visual Studio...
Reasons that move me to vim. - Continuous Textmate crashes.
- Bored of traditional editors. - Wanted to try something new.
PROs: - Fun. - Speed! - Comfort. - Mobility.
CONS: - Nothing!
2. The path to vim.
Vim isn't hard. Two weeks are enough.
None
First step: $ vimtutor
SECOND STeP: CONFIGURATION
Don't use janus - Complex - Opinionated - Makes you
lazy
BASIC CONFIG: - http://bit.ly/uxu5h9 - http://bit.ly/bFYbdU - http://bit.ly/aLfi5n - http://bit.ly/pGKwOU
Third step: - Practice! - Vim Golf - http://vimgolf.com/
3. USING vim.
Editing modes
InSERT some keys: - i (insert) - a (append) -
c (change) - <esc>, jk (exit mode)
Normal some keys: - j, k (up, down) - w,
e, b (words) - f (find) - t (until)
selection some keys: - v (normal) - V (lines) -
<ctrl>-v (columns) - <esc>, jk (exit mode)
Now, combine them!
example 1 vii: - v (visual selection) - i (inside
the same) - i (indentation level)
example 2 va‘: - v (visual selection) - a (around)
- ‘ (the single quotes)
example 3 2dt(: - 2 (2 times) - d (delete)
- t (until) - ( (the first parentheses)
Repeating commands - “.” is your friend :) - digits
before commands - Macros
COPY & PASTE - y (yank) - p (paste) -
c (change - yank) - d (deletes - yank) - x (delete char - yank) - http://bit.ly/rPLnDw
Panes & tabs - <leader>v (vertical pane) - <leader>h (horizontal
pane) - <leader>n (new tab) - <leader>0-9 (go to tab) - :tabc (close tab) - :tabo (close all tabs but this)
Find & replace - Regexp -:%s/pattern/replacement/
4. Mastering vim.
Know your config file
PLUGINS - zoomin - ack - ctrlp - vim-surround -
tslime (send commands to tmux)
VIM <3 git submodules Adding a new plugin: - $
git submodule add plugin_git_repo_url bundle/ plugin-folder Updating all plugins: - $ git submodule foreach git pull
Macros
TMUX
What is it?
It makes sense if you use the terminal *a lot*

warning for rails developers using tmuxinator: each rails server must
be configured to use different ports
