Learning Vim

Why do cw and ce act the same way, but dw and de not?
Shift + d seems to behave like d$. Why?
10 Advanced Vim Features - Sebastian Daschner

ge - e but backwards
o, O - insert newlines
A - append to the end of the line
\c - escape char for case-insensitive search
<C-y>, <C-e> - scroll up/down
= - format, e.g. =ap - format inside of a
o in visual mode - jump to the beginning/end of a selection

ge - e but backwards
U - undo the whole line
<C-r> - redo
p - paste deleted text
r_ - replace characters
c - change characters. ce - change all character until the end of the word.
o, O - insert newlines

123 G or :123 - go to line 123
<C-o> - go back
<C-i> - go forward
K - quick docs on the word the cursor is on

% - to find matching parenthesis

;, , - repeats last … Dunno what, but works with f, t, F, t commands
. - repeats last operation

\c - escape char for case-insensitive search

:e <path/to/file> - open a file
:saveas <path/to/file> - save a file with a specified name

H, M, L - high, middle, low (faster than hjkl)
zt, zz, zb - same, but doesn’t move the cursor

The command zc will close a fold (if the cursor is in an open fold), and zo will open a fold (if the cursor is in a closed fold). It’s easier to just use za which will toggle the current fold (close it if it was open, or open it if it was closed).

The commands zc (close), zo (open), and za (toggle) operate on one level of folding, at the cursor. The commands zC, zO and zA are similar, but operate on all folding levels (for example, the cursor line may be in an open fold, which is inside another open fold; typing zC would close all folds at the cursor).

The command zr reduces folding by opening one more level of folds throughout the whole buffer (the cursor position is not relevant). Use zR to open all folds.

The command zm gives more folding by closing one more level of folds throughout the whole buffer. Use zM to close all folds.
