|
|
- **Inside/Around**: `ci"` change inside quotes, `da(` delete around parentheses
|
|
- **Jump to character**: `f{char}` jump forward to char, `F{char}` jump backward
|
|
- `;` repeat last f/F/t/T, `,` repeat in opposite direction
|
|
- **Macros**:
|
|
- `q{letter}` start recording to register
|
|
- `q` stop recording
|
|
- `@{letter}` play macro
|
|
- `@@` replay last macro
|

## Pro Tips
|
|
- Use `.` to repeat your last change - super powerful!
|
|
- Learn to use `ci"`, `ci'`, `ci(`, `ci{` to change inside quotes/brackets
|
|
- Combine counts with motions: `3w`, `5j`, `2dd`
|
|
- Use relative line numbers (you have this enabled!) with counts: `5j` to jump 5 lines down
|
|
- System clipboard integration: Just yank normally with `y` - it copies to system clipboard! (You have `clipboard=unnamedplus` set)
