Advanced Vim Workflows

Показать описание

Watch three typical workflows of someone with a decade of Vim experience. I'll edit 40 files at once with :argdo, turn bags of JavaScript functions into classes with a macro, then create a keyboard shortcut for playing the mp3 under cursor.

Errata
4.16: I said "command line mode". It's actually "command mode". Thanks to the great people at r/vim for catching that.

So far all videos displaying the "power of vim" have had me screaming at the screen as they use macros to solve absolutely basic problems that can be solved much better with :%s/pattern/replacement/g (assuming the dev is not a tool and actually knows Regex).
This is the first demonstration I see of actual powerful use macros. Especially since you also demonstrate the power of text objects and arglist.
Well done sir!

PS: my most recent use of macros was selecting certain bits of text and moving them from one file to another. It's suprisingly easy to record a macro that:
1. deletes the entire text object your cursor is on
2. switches window (I had the other file open in the other window)
3. jumps to the bottom
4. pastes
5. comes back to the first window
6. jumps to the next text object to inspect

As someone just getting started with vim, that was amazing to watch! Can you do a video on how you have your vim set up? I mean with all the plugins ...etc.

Im pretty new to vim but so far I really love its capabilities though im no where near this level! The only thing is trying to remember all the keys and wishing I knew more about vim builtin scripting.
Glad to discover your content and thank you for producing it!

I've been using VI since 1997 and that was just nutty.

Excelent showcase on actually doing real example on how to use this tools. I often when doing some refactoring try to learn a new way on doing it by using Vim or some cli tool like sed. Never knew I could run a macro on several files like that, and also that example on taking the results of a regexp and pasting on that line. Very good stuff! Keep them going!

And here I am thinking VIM can' surprise me anymore. And then there is this video.

You had me already convinced with Schumann, you didn't need to record all those macros!

I always find so much to vim that I haven't discovered yet. The args do and macro thing I must learn to make use of.
