@Anonymous:

This series assumes the reader uses Vim or knows what Vim is. So, I have omitted the most common actions.

Give "vimtutor" and VIM itself takes you through a tour of its working.

Did you mention cut and paste?

Incredibly useful for a fresh vim with no custom .vimrc is :mk which writes the current settings out to .vimrc automatically. Customise while in vim, then write out rather than editing the rc file manually.

PS. The captcha on this blog is terrible. I had to use IE to get this posted.

Thanks Bonus and Pento :)

( - jumps to start of file.

Nice article, two things to note though. ( and ) move to the beginning and end of the sentence, respectively, not beginning and end of file.
Also `` and '' don't jump between current location and start of file, rather they jump between current location and the previous absolute jump (like if you do 10gg). If there's no absolute jump then I think the beginning of the file is used.
