Sinopse:
Most developers spend more than half their day reading and editing text — source code, documentation, e-mail, and log files — yet rarely stop to ask whether they are doing it efficiently. This presentation starts from that exact problem and, habit by habit, shows how small changes to the way you use your editor compound into dramatically less time at the keyboard. Bram Moolenaar walks through seven concrete habits, each following the same three-step loop: detect the inefficiency, find a quicker way, and make it a habit. You will see how search highlighting and the * command make navigation instant, how insert-mode and omni-completion save you from retyping long identifiers, how abbreviations and the spell checker fix mistakes as you type, and how tags, the quickfix window, and :grep keep you oriented across a whole project. The later habits go further: moving text between Vim and other applications through the clipboard, treating structured text such as lint output with Vim script, and the discipline of continually sharpening your own workflow. Rather than a reference of every command, this is a mindset: learn one command at a time, when you need it, and turn it into a reflex. It is a short, practice-first classic for anyone who wants to move faster without changing their tools, written by the creator of Vim himself.
