RTFM - read the f****** manual ;-) " 4.) visit the websites mentioned in this document " and you will become a vim-expert (I at least hope ;-)) " " Not enough information?

" The characters you will most often are: " for control-m " for control-v which quotes the following character " for the escape character.
