<H1>vi Complete Key Binding List</H1>
|
||||
This is not intended as a tutorial. It is a reference on what every vi
|
||||
key binding does, followed by some useful vi tricks and tips. An expert will
|
||||
probably know most of these already, but an intermediate vi user will find
|
||||
valuable information, and even an expert may learn a thing or two.

<A NAME="defs"><H3>Definitions</H3></A>
|
||||
<UL>
|
||||
<LI><B>UNBOUND</B> - this key is not normally bound to any vi command<BR>
|
||||
<LI><B>word</B> - a lower-case word ("w", "b", "e" commands)
|
||||
is defined by a consecutive string of
|
||||
letters, numbers, or underscore, or a consecutive string of characters
|
||||
that is not any of {letters, numbers, underscore, whitespace}
|
||||
<LI><B>Word</B> - an upper-case word ("W", "B", "E" commands) is a consecutive
|
||||
sequence of non-whitespace.
|
||||
<LI><B>sentence</B>
|
||||
<LI><B>paragraph</B>
|
||||
<LI><B>cursor motion command</B> - any command which positions the cursor is
|
||||
ok here,
|
||||
including the use of numeric prefixes. In addition, a repeat of the edit
|
||||
command usually means to apply to the entire current line. For example,
|
||||
"<<" means shift current line left; "cc" means
|
||||
replace entire current line; and "dd" means delete entire current line.
|
||||
</UL>
|
||||

||||
|
||||
<H3>Key Bindings in Editing Modes</H3>
|
||||
While in any edit mode (insert, replace, etc.) there are some keys that
|
||||
are used to adjust behaviour, rather than just to insert text.
|
||||
<UL>
|
||||
<LI>ESC - leave edit mode, return to command mode
|
||||
<LI>^D - move line backwards one shiftwidth. shiftwidth must be set, and
|
||||
either the line must be newly added, or ^T must have been used.
|
||||
<LI>^T - move all after cursor forwards one shiftwidth
|
||||
<LI>^H - deletes text that was entered during the current edit mode.
|
||||
Most versions of vi do not allow deleting to previous line.
|
||||
<LI>^V - insert next character even if it is a editing character.
|
||||
</UL>
|
||||
|
||||
<A NAME="prefix"><H3>Repitition Counts</H3></A>
|
||||
Most commands can be prefixed with a multidigit number, that influences the
|
||||
way the command works.

Need to differentiate between such things as 5yj vs. y5j?
|
||||
<H3>Multibuffer</H3>
|
||||
Standard vi does have an ability to toggle between two different files.
|
||||
These will be the last two edited files (edit new files with :efilename)
|
||||
To switch files, use control-^.
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
These filenames can be reffered to in ex commands, and subshell filters,
|
||||
using two special characters: "%" refers to the current file, and "#"
|
||||
refers to the previous file. Here's some handy things you can do with
|
||||
this feature:
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
:map v :!chmod 644 %^[ make world-readable
|
||||
:map q :!ci -l %^[ RCS checkin
|
||||
:map V :!diff # %^[ compare previous and current files
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
<H3>Tags</H3>
|
||||
Tags are cool, but I don't use them. Go figure. Maybe I'll write something
|
||||
up here someday.
|
||||
<H3>Mappings and Abbreviations</H3>
|
||||
<TT>:map</TT> lets you bind a list of keystrokes to a shortcut in command-mode.
|
||||
This shortcut can be a multiple-key sequence (with limitations),
|
||||
and the commands within can enter and exit edit-mode.
|
||||
Some examples of <TT>:map</TT> can be found above, in the multibuffer section.
|
||||
Below is a list of all the normally unbound keys in vi command-mode.
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
g q v K V # * \ = ^A ^C ^I ^K ^O ^V ^W ^X ^[ ^_
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
When you try to map multiple key sequences, you won't be able to start
|
||||
them with lower or upper case letters ("Too dangerous to map that"),
|
||||
but the punctuation and control characters are fair game.
|
||||
In addition, : can't be mapped, and sometimes a few other keys. Multiple
|
||||
key sequences can also be very useful with terminal-generated sequences,
|
||||
which is why the escape key is bindable. I have my xterm set to generate
|
||||
=f1 for function key one, and so on, so all the function keys are easier to
|
||||
use with bindings.
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
If you use multiple key shortcuts, you'll want to know about the timeout
|
||||
variable. With <TT>:se timeout</TT>, you have a limited time to generate
|
||||
the key sequence. This is useful if the key sequences are terminal generated.
|
||||
With <TT>:se notimeout</TT>, it just keeps waiting until the next character
|
||||
does or doesn't match any possible current sequences.
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<TT>:map!</TT> lets you bind a list of keystrokes to a shortcut in edit-mode.
|
||||
This is useful for adding editing commands to edit mode. One popular
|
||||
trick is to bind the arrow keys to move up and down while (apparently)
|
||||
staying in edit-mode, as in the last four lines below.
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
:map! ^? ^H Make delete act like backspace
|
||||
:map! ^[OA ^[ka xterm arrow sequences will
|
||||
:map! ^[OB ^[ja exit edit-mode, move the
|
||||
:map! ^[OC ^[la cursor, and re-enter edit-mode.
|
||||
:map! ^[OD ^[ha
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
If you use the above
|
||||
trick for arrow-keys in edit-mode, you'll want to set timeout, because
|
||||
otherwise you won't get beeps at all when you hit escape, only when you
|
||||
use the next keystroke. With timeout, you get the beep, but after the
|
||||
timeout. Since both of these are annoying, it may be a useful choice to
|
||||
avoid multikey sequences that involve escape, as a matter of taste.
|
||||
Also, many systems now set up command-mode arrow keys in vi by default,
|
||||
which also leads to the same problem.
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<TT>:ab</TT> lets you bind a key sequence to an abbreviation,
|
||||
for use in edit-mode.
|
||||
Abbreviations don't fire until vi decides that you've typed the shortcut
|
||||
as a whole word. So if taf is a shortcut for Thomas A. Fine, and I type
|
||||
taffy, it won't substitute because I didn't enter taf as a word by itself.
|
||||
(If I'd used <TT>:map!,</TT> then taffy would do the
|
||||
replacement before I got to the second "f".)
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Abbreviations are echoed normally until complete, therefore the abbreviation
|
||||
can't contain escape (you'd leave edit-mode before completing the
|
||||
abbreviation),
|
||||
but the replacement expression can contain escape, and can leave and return
|
||||
to edit-mode.
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
:ab teh the
|
||||
:ab #d #define
|
||||
:ab #i #include
|
||||
:ab cmain main(argc,argv)^Mint argc;^Mchar **argv;^M{^M}^[O
|
||||
:ab cmmap mmap(NULL,st.st_size,PROT_READ,MAP_SHARED,fd,0);
|
||||
:ab readsig ^[G:r ~/misc/sig^M
|
||||
}
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
To keep a live abbreviation from going off in your hands, use ^V. For
|
||||
instance, if I want to type teh but have the the abbreviation above, I
|
||||
can let it "fix" it, then back up and unfix it; or I can type "teh^V..."
|
||||
and it won't expand the abbreviatoin.
|
||||

|
||||
<H3>Repeating with .</H3>
|
||||
Commands can be repeated with the redo command, normally bound to ".",
|
||||
but I've found this to be occasionally unpredictable. If you use multiple
|
||||
key sequences in a macro, and vi is waiting to see if one of those sequences
|
||||
might complete, and you start a new command here, it won't be noticed by
|
||||
the redo. (Solaris, HPUX at least).
|
||||
<H3>System Differences</H3>
|
||||
<UL>
|
||||
<LI>Older versions of vi didn't automatically set up arrow-keys in
|
||||
command-mode; they didn't interfere with the beep. (Maybe multiple
|
||||
key bindings were new at the same time???)
|
||||
<LI>Some versions of vi have encryption, some don't.
|
||||
<LI>Options processing is handled differently from version to version.
|
||||
Solaris prefers <TT>-c command</TT> in place of <TT>+command</TT>, and
|
||||
<TT>-L</TT> instead of <TT>-r</TT>.
|
||||
<LI>Differnt systems may have other keys besides : that are "Too dangerous

to map that".
|

<LI>The size of macros (:map, etc.) are limited in different ways on different
|
||||
systems.
|
||||
<LI>On some systems the environment variable EXINIT overrides .exrc files (Solaris, HPUX), other systems it enhances it
|
||||
(SunOS???, FreeBSD).
|
||||
<LI>nvi allows backspace to previous line in edit-mode (if previous line was edited) (FreeBSD).
|
||||
<LI>variants of vi that have multiple undo have different styles. One style
|
||||
(linux) uses u as undo, and control-R as redo. The other style (FreeBSD)
|
||||
u acts normally, but . continues on in the same direction as the last u
|
||||
(whether it was undo or redo). I prefer the latter because it doesn't
|
||||
interfere as much with traditional vi behaviour.

|

I've seen various replacements for the fmt command that you can use to format
|
||||
paragraphs almost automatically. Mine's better:
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<TT>:map v 0ma}b:'a,.j<ctrl-v><return>070
|
||||
? *<ctrl-v><escape>dwi<ctrl-v><return><ctrl-v><escape></TT>
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Note the control-v's are there to enter the following characters, which would
|
||||
otherwise terminate the map command. The above was written as you have to
|
||||
enter the special characters in traditional vi. In vim, you can use the
|
||||
four literal characters "<CR>" for a carriage return, and also
|
||||
"<Esc>" for Escape. So it may be easier to type this, and it can
|
||||
also go into your .vimrc) more readibly (with thanks to
|
||||
Bart Van den Broeck):
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<TT>:map v 0ma}b:'a,.j<CR>070 ? *<Esc>dwi<CR><Esc></TT>
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
It's better because you don't have to prejoin the paragraph by hitting J
|
||||
an arbitrary number of times. Just hit v (or whatever you've mapped it to)
|
||||
starting at the beginning or in the middle of the paragraph, and it joines the
|
||||
rest of the paragraph together, formats one line, and moves the cursor down
|
||||
again. Just keep hitting v and it will keep formatting. You have to stop one
|
||||
before the end or you'll end up with an extra short line. It also does not
|
||||
leave spaces at the end of the line.
