Introduction to Vim

Jan/16 Thu 07:00PM-09:00PM 4-231

Enrollment: Unlimited: No advance sign-up

Vim sucks. Out of the box. But if you can learn how to fix the bad parts, it turns into such a powerful tool that you'll realize the unreasonable amount of time you were spending editing code (and documents) before.

My goal is to in two hours teach you how to be faster in all ways through Vim. And then with just a bit of practice (a couple days of document editing), you will actually be better.

Please come with laptops and Vim installed!
