Either, everyone knows entirely different subsets of vim commands, or I'm really bad at vim. The truth is probably somewhere in between.The extent of my vim knowledge is pretty much this:- bunch of .vimrc settings- tiny bit of vim script- [i]nsert, [v]isual modes- [ESC]ape mode- [y]ank, [d]elete, [p]aste- [w]rite, [r]ead, [q]uit- / (search)- %s (regex search/replace)- < (indent left), > (indent right)I'm aware of marks, buffers, windows and tabs but haven't explored them.

@thorthenorsemanThat's pretty much the subset I use, and for everything else I usually open up the help window.

@thorthenorsemanOnce I learned that 'q' then a letter records a macro and '@' then the letter plays it, everything got a lot faster.

@thorthenorseman I am even worse. I know how to enter and exit insert mode, how to move around and do sed things in it. That’s about it.
