Learning Doom and Vim

You know what improves productivity? Mastering motions and operators.

Why Doom ?! 왜 둠으로 갈아타니?

  • 크로스 플랫폼 지원 목표

  • 최소 설정 최대 효과

  • 2023-09-09 이 문서를 번역하고 스페이스맥스로 변경하자. 뭐 여기에 미친 사람이 아니라면 이 정도 에디팅 정보를 모으지 안을 것이다. 특히 EVIl 편집 관련해서 정말 대단한 수준의 도를 이루었다. 이것 때문에 내가 Doom 으로 옮길 수는 없다.

  • [2024-02-16 Fri 09:47] 이 문서를 마주하며 감동했다. Spacemacs 로 옮기려는 생각이 항상 있었지만 때가 되면 그렇듯. 자연스레 둠으로 가게 되었다. 하루만에 둠으로 거의 모든 것을 옮겼다. 그래도 어려움이 없음에 감사하며. 이제 배포판을 충분히 준비할 수 있다. 추가 키를 없이 기본 구성만으로 전체를 포괄하여 이해한다면 모든 것이 쉬워진다. 설정이 없어야 모두가 사용할 수 있으며 그도

Doom General

Doom is a configuration framework for Emacs tailored for Emacs bankruptcy veterans who want less framework in their frameworks. Configuration is at the same time the most fun and biggest challenge of any Emacs installation, Doom has the advantage to be a sink for several hours of digging into very specific corners of Emacs. Let’s all leverage that.

Doom 은 프레임워크에서 프레임워크가 적은 것을 원하는 Emacs 파산 베테랑을 위해 맞춤화된 Emacs 용 구성 프레임워크입니다. 구성은 모든 Emacs 설치에서 가장 재미있고 가장 큰 도전 과제인 동시에, Doom 은 몇 시간 동안 Emacs 의 매우 구체적인 구석을 파헤칠 수 있는 싱크대 역할을 할 수 있다는 장점이 있습니다. 모두 이 점을 활용합시다.

General recommendations:

  • Use REPL and Eshell toggle functionality: SPC o e => for eshell
  • When Too many open pipes error pops up run: M-x file-notify-rm-all-watchers
  • SPC sj search in the jumplist
  • Ctrl , find next flyspell error
  • Use SPC ~ to toggle popup buffers : C-` 도 같다.
  • SPC ` : switch-to-previous-buffer

How to perform project-search and replace?

텍스트 검색해서 일괄 수정하는 시나리오를 설명하고 있다. 필수 시나리오다.

  • spc s p launch a project text search
  • c-; to run embark-act : Spacemacs M-o
  • E to run embark-export
  • C-c C-p to run wgrep-change-to-wgrep-mode to make search results writable
  • :%s/foo/bar/g to perform a regular single file edit
  • Z Z to write all the changes to their respective files or Z Q to abort search and replace

Modules / Layers

Doom has several modules enabling different features across Emacs. This section attempts to document the major functionalities I rely on in a daily basis

Doom에는 여러 모듈이 있어 Emac에서 다양한 기능을 사용할 수 있습니다. 이 섹션에서는 제가 매일 사용하는 주요 기능을 문서화하려고 합니다

> 이게 다 입니까?

Search : 검색

If you press SPC and wait for a few seconds, the which-key panel will pop up. We can already see a couple of good search options, but the majority of the search functionality is behind SPC s.

SPC 를 누르고 몇 초간 기다리면 which-key 패널이 나타납니다. 이미 몇 가지 좋은 검색 옵션이 표시되어 있지만 대부분의 검색 기능은 SPC s 뒤에 있습니다.

CommandsDescription
SPC + *search for the word at point across the whole project
SPC + 'resume last search
SPC + /search in the whole project
TODO Git timemachine : Git 타임머신

[2024-02-16 Fri 13:00] 이건 사용 안해봤는데? 필요한가? 검토 바람.

The evil keybindings for git-timemachine are:

CommandFunction
C-kgit-timemachine-show-prev-revision
C-jgit-timemachine-show-next-revision
qgit-timemachine-quit
gtYgit-timemachine-kill-revision
gtbgit-timemachine-blame

Doom Cheatsheet

  • spc : : for entering a command
  • spc f D : delete this file
  • spc b m : bookmark current buffer window
  • spc b RET or spc RET : open bookmark browser

Projects with Projectile

  • spc o E to open the shell (eshell) in fullscreen
  • spc o e to open the shell (eshell) in a popup window
  • spc f r recently visited files
  • spc f R rename file
  • spc p r recently visited files in a project

Dired

  • C to copy
  • R to move
  • Toggle ( for simple view
  • c compress file
KeybindDescription
SPC f dFind directory with dired
qExit dired buffer
C-c C-rRun
C-c C-eRename entries with
패키지

fd-dired, diredfl, dired-git-info, dired-rsync 가 기본 탑재. 왜?!

dirvish 도 있으나, 굳이 사용할 필요 없다.

Buffers, Windows and Basic Navigation

Buffers
  • spc b X you can create a scratch buffer
Windows
  • spc w w to switch windows
Workspaces
  • spc tab [ previous workspace
  • spc tab ] next workspace

TODO Quick, horizontal movements with evil-snipe

  • f and then the letter you want to navigate to
    • , will go backward
    • ; will go forward after that “find”
  • s to snipe (choose two letters)
    • evil-snipe remembers your last search. you can press ; or , and the last search will be replayed.
  • ] a move forward by arg

TODO Long distance navigation inside the file

  • g s spc to use avy and going to a certain word in file
  • Use t to “teleport” the word from one place to another g s spc select-one-letter t select-the-correct-spot-to-teleport

TODO Multiple cursor in Emacs with evil-multiedit

Make selections and then edit those selections interactively. You can make an edit and the changes will be reflected in all the selections

  • M-d will select the current word, and again will find another occurrence
  • M-o will find the occurrence upward

Many evil-mode motions/operators will have slightly different behavior while evil-multiedit is active or the cursor is in an iedit region:

  • D delete the region
  • C delete to end-of-region and go into insert mode
  • A go into insert mode at end-of-region
  • I go into insert mode at start-of-region
  • V select the region
  • P replace the iedit region with the contents of the clipboard

File tree

  • spc o p for opening treemacs

Doom Evil Collections

  • Prefix keys: g and z are the ubiquituos prefix keys
    • g generally stands for “go” and is best used for movements
    • z is used for scrolling, folding, spell-checking and more

Quitting (q, ZQ, ZZ)

In Vim, q is for recording macros.

Vim quits with ZZ or ZQ. In most Emacs special modes, it stands for quitting while macros are recorded/played with <f3> and <f4>.

  • Bind q and ZZ to quit-window
  • Bind ZQ to evil-quit

Refreshing / Reverting (gr)

  • gr is used for refreshing in evil-magit, evil-mu4e, and more.

REPL (gz)

If the mode has a Go To REPL-type command, set it to gz

Doom Works Only In Vim

Works in Vim, but seems not to work on Doom

  • Global marks are preserved between sessions in Vim
  • :help <doc-entry> —- Vim docs not available :/
  • :changes doesn’t work
  • [I show lines with matching word under cursor
    • now, this binding will call +vertico/search-symbol-at-point function which is an improvement over Vim’s default behavior due to interactivity
  • the commands '[, and '] does not work.
    • These are marks defined by Vim to jump to last yank/changed text
    • we can use goto-last-change or g; command though
  • `0 will return you to the last file you had open before you quit vim

Doom Projects Projectile

Doom relies on Projectile to handle all project related functionalities under SPC p prefix.

CommandDescription
spc p + eedit .dir-locals file from project
spc p + iinvalidate project cache
spc p + ttoggle between project implementation and test
spc p + llist todos
spc p + dsee project directory files in Dired
spc p + gprojectile-ripgrep

Doom CORE

Doom is basically broken down into core and modules at a very high level. All the code in core are related to sane defaults, Doom’s foundation on package management, projects, and a feel more pieces.

Doom은 기본적으로 매우 높은 수준에서 코어모듈로 나뉘며, 코어의 모든 코드는 정상적인 기본값, 패키지 관리에 대한 Doom의 기반, 프로젝트 및 느낌 더 많은 부분과 관련이 있습니다.

The current statuses for each package are:

StatusMeaning
package kept
package removed
⚠️package removed, but under consideration
☑️package kept, something broke on removal
💠package kept, hard dependency of some other package

Doom MODULES

[2024-02-16 Fri 16:26] 그가 작업하는 이상. 원본 구분은 사라진다.

TODO corfu

TODO treesit

vertico

  • [✅] vertico
  • [✅] orderless
    • It is possible to live without orderless and configuring completion-styles option to consider partial-completion and flex, however orderless is a lot faster. Let’s keep it around.
    • Amazing! I learned how to use orderless in company completion UI. As SPC takes us out of completion, let’s use & as the separator.
    • The separator also works with corfu now that I ditched company for a while
  • [☑️] consult
    • Project search via SPC / was broken
  • [⚠️] consult-dir
  • [⚠️] consult-flycheck
  • [⚠️] embark
  • [⚠️] embark-consult
  • [⚠️] consult-dir
  • [✅️] wgrep
    • wgrep allows you to edit a grep buffer and apply those changes to the file buffer like sed interactively. No need to learn sed script, just learn Emacs
    • example of workflow:
      • projectile-grep
      • i
      • :s/<pattern>/<new-pattern>/g
      • ZZ
  • [✅] marginalia
    • This is useful because as there is a bug with uniquify and persp-mode used for workspaces, then I can’t really know the difference for several buffers opened with the same name. Therefore, marginalia adds sufficient annotation to make this way better.

doom

  • [❌] doom-themes
  • [❌] solaire-mode

TODO popup

Very amazing package developed by Doom team. I’m very interested in digging deeper here. Taming popup has been one of my worst skills in Emacs. I enabled +all special buffers to be handled as popups. Very optimistic about this.

Doom 팀이 개발한 매우 놀라운 패키지입니다. 여기서 더 깊이 파고들고 싶습니다. 팝업을 길들이는 것은 제가 이맥스에서 최악의 기술 중 하나였습니다. 모든 특수 버퍼를 팝업으로 처리하도록 활성화했습니다. 매우 낙관적입니다.

+all
Enable fallback rules to ensure all temporary/special buffers (whose name begins with a space or asterix) are treated as popups.
+defaults
Enable reasonable default popup rules for a variety of buffers.

  • [✅] evil
    • There are some dependencies required by evil stated in their README page:
    • Evil requires any of the following for C-r
      • [✅] undo-fu
      • However, Doom also uses undo-fu-session to save/restore undo history. I’m not interested in this.

  • [⚠️] evil-lion
  • [✅️] evil-nerd-commenter
    • Comment code efficiently!
  • [❌️] evil-numbers
    • :/ I think I never had to increase/decrease numbers by unit before
  • [⚠️] evil-snipe
  • [✅️] evil-surround
    • I use this plugin everytime! I’m not using smartparens to handle surrounding.
    • Actually, I use add surrounding (yS<textobject>) a lot but not the next ones:
      • change surrounding: cs<old-textobject><new-textobject>
      • delete surrounding: ds<textobject>
  • [⚠️] evil-textobj-anyblock
  • [✅️] evil-traces
    • It’s useful to visualize the output of some commands before applying it
    • I’m not so good at Ex commands in Vim, so I generally like visual hints that I’m not doing something wrong.
  • [❌️️] evil-visualstar
    • Didn’t see any improvement in the behavior of plain * or #

    • Changes compared to Emacs undo:
      • Redo will not pass the initial undo action
      • Redo winn not undo
      • These constraints can be disabled by pressing C-g before undo or redo.

Yeap, now it’s time for the keybindings. Some modes add lots of bindigs with custom functions and whatnot. Let’s start documenting a few obvious ones:

이제 키 바인딩을 살펴볼 차례입니다. 일부 모드는 사용자 정의 함수 등으로 많은 바인딩을 추가합니다. 몇 가지 눈에 띄는 것부터 문서화해 보겠습니다:

Vim

알고 싶은 부분이 있다면?! 몰랐던 무엇인가?!

General

Vim is fundammentally built on command composability. Vim favors small, general-purpose commands that can be combined with objects to compose larger commands.

Vim은 기본적으로 명령 구성성을 기반으로 합니다. Vim은 객체와 결합하여 더 큰 명령을 구성할 수 있는 작고 범용적인 명령을 선호합니다.

  • use the more general text objects (iw rather than w)
  • prefer text objects over motions when possible
    • words: w
    • sentences: s
    • paragraph: p
    • double quoted string: "
    • parenthesized block: )
    • indentation block: i
  • visual mode is a smell because it breaks repeatability
  • don’t use two sentences where one will do it
  • to avoid using Esc we can press C-[ or jk in Doom
  • history of past searches: q/
  • ctrl-^ will send you back to the previous buffer you were in
  • gn for the next occurrence of the last used search pattern
  • always be scrolling! don’t use hjkl to move around the screen

Marks

[2023-06-15 Thu 15:46]

A mark allows to record the current cursor position, then later we can return to it. They have one non-trivial problem, you can’t easily see them while working on your document.

*mark*를 사용하면 현재 커서 위치를 기록한 다음 나중에 해당 위치로 돌아갈 수 있습니다. 문서 작업 중에 쉽게 볼 수 없는 사소한 문제가 하나 있습니다.

  • each file has available marks identified by lowercase letters from a to z
  • global marks are identified by uppercase letters
  • marks are motions, so you can use them with actions

Using marks

To jump to a mark enter an apostrophe ' or a backtick ` followed by the letter where the mark was set.

Using an apostrophe jumps to the beginning of the line holding the mark, while a backtick jumps to the line and column of the mark.

There are many ways to use marks, the following table summarize some of it:

Commanddescription
]'jump to next line with a lowercase mark
['jump to previous line with a lowercase mark
]`jump to next lowercase mark
[`jump to previous lowercase mark
``after a movement, you can return to your previous location
ctrl-^send you back to the previous buffer that you were in
d`pdelete to mark p
d’pdelete everything including the line mark p is on
y`pyank to mark
`'jump back and forth between the last two jump destinations
`.jump to the position of the last edit
‘.jump to the line of the last edit
`<jump to the start of the last visual selection
`>jump to the end of the last visual selection
‘<start of visual selection
>’end of visual selection
‘[start of last change or yank
‘]end of last change or yank
‘.position of where last change was made
‘^position of cursor when last time Vim left insert-mode (gi)
'’positon before last jump

Example of `` usage:

  • /while<Enter> ;; jump to the first match of while
  • `` ;; move back to start

Deleting Marks

You can delete marks with the `:delm` command. To delete marks ``a`, ``e`, and ``G`, you would type `:delm aeG`. You can delete all local marks with `:delm!`

Seeing Marks

Without plugins you can “see” your marks by running :marks which shows you a quickfix window that list all your marks.

Resources

Text Objects

[2023-06-15 Thu 15:47]

Vim provides text objects for the three building blocks of plaintext: words, sentences, and paragraphs. Vim’s text objects provides an incredible level of precison, the key is to try to always edit by text objects.

Vim은 일반 텍스트의 세 가지 구성 요소인 단어, 문장, 단락에 대한 텍스트 개체를 제공합니다. Vim의 텍스트 개체는 놀라운 수준의 정밀도를 제공하며, 핵심은 항상 텍스트 개체로 편집하는 것입니다.

  • aw - a word (includes surrounding white space)
  • iw - inner word (does not include surrounding white space)
  • it - xml/html tag (applies to everything in current xml/html tag)

This convention about the a and i is followed by all text objects.

  • as - a sentence
  • is - inner sentence
  • ap - a paragraph
  • ip - inner paragraph

Programming language text objects

Vim provides several text objects based on common programming language constructs.

CommandDescription
a"a double quoted string
i"inner double quoted string
a)a parenthesized block
i)inner parenthesized block
i{inner nearest curly brackets
aia indentation block
iiinner indentation

Examples

This sentence has a hidden code block (function arg1 arg2)

gdii will comment all indentation

References

Motions

[2023-06-15 Thu 15:47]

These commands move the cursor position.

The motion commands can be used after an vim-operator command, to have the comand operate on the text that was moved over.

CommandsDescription
Istart insert mode in the beg of a line
Astart insert mode in the end of a line
Hhigh
Mmiddle
Llow
ztput the cursor positon to top
zzput the cursor position to middle
zbput the cursor position to bottom
Ctrl-Uscroll up half screen
Ctrl-Bscroll up full screen
Ctrl-Yscroll up incrementally
Ctrl-Dscroll down half screen
Ctrl-Fscroll down full screen
Ctrl-Escroll down incrementally
Ctrl-o / Ctrl-icycle through :jumps
f/F and t/Tfind characters
+to go to the next line
^goto the first non-blank character of the line
g_goto the first non-blank character of the line
%goto the corresponding (, [, or {
*goto the next occurrence of the word under cursor
#goto the previous occurrence of the word under cursor
]next-*
[previous-*
[mmove to the beginning of the current method
]mmove to the beginning of the next method

After applying the operator the cursor is mostly left at the start of the text that was operated upon.

Exclusive vs Inclusive

Directly from :help exclusive in Vim:

A character motion is either inclusive or exclusive. When inclusive, the start and the end position of the motion are included in the operation. When exclusive, the last character towards the end of the buffer is not included.

We can find out what word motions are inclusive or exclusive by reading :help word-motions in Vim

CommandDescription
wexclusive motion
Wexclusive motion
einclusive motion
Einclusive motion
bexclusive motion
Bexclusive motion
geinclusive motion
gEinclusive motion

Looking in retrospect and digging a little more into the motions help files in Vim seems like only e is inclusive and all other motions are exclusive. Huge asterisk here because I’ve checked only the ones I use regularly.

Jumplist

[2023-06-15 Thu 15:48] From Vim’s :help jumplist:

Jumps are remembered in a jump list. With the Ctrl-o and Ctrl-i command you can go to cursor positions before olders jumps, and back again. Thus you can move up and down the list. There is a separate jump list for each window.

It’s important to know what qualifies as a jump?

CommandDescription
<n>Gjump to line <n>
}jump to next blank line
{jump to prev blank line
[{jump to begin of block
]}jump to end of block
)jump to end of sentence
(jump to begin of sentence
]]jump to end of section
[[jump to beg of section
Hjump to top of window
Mjump to middle of window
Ljump to bottom of window
%jump to matching delimiter
:tag …jump to specified tag
Ctrl-tjump to older tag
Ctrl-]jump to tag definition

You can see all the jump list by typing :jumps

Fold

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:08] !!! WARNING: I’M NOT USING FOLD FOR NOW!! I NEED TO GET USED TO OTHER THINGS FIRST!

The default fold method of Vim is manual, so no folding occurs. There are several ways to add folds:

  • zf{motion}: Create a fold based on motion
  • visual selecton, zf: fold selection
CommandsDescription
zoopen fold
zcclose fold
zEeliminate all folds in the current window
zatoggle fold

Brackets

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:08] Every programming language seems to make use of all brackets, incluiding curly and square. Clojure is by far no exception. =)

Movement and selection

Moving the cursor over a bracket and pressing % will cause the cursor to jump to the corresponding bracket.

Resources

Operators

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:08] The following operators are available:

CommandDescription
cchange
ddelete
yyank into register
~swap case
g~swap case
gumake lowercase
gUmake uppercase
!filter through an external program
=filter through C-indenting
==indent the current line
gqtext formatting
>shift right
<shift left
zfdefine a fold
d])delete until the next close parens
M-diedit select the current word forward
M-Diedit select the next word backward

If the motion includes a count and the operator also had a count before it, then the two counts are multiplied. For example: “2d3w” deletes six words.

Insert Mode Shotcuts

When editing a file in Insert Mode, many shortcuts used elsewhere in Unix and other text editors are available.

CommandDescription
Ctrl-wdelete the word before the cursor
Ctrl-udelete the current line
Ctrl-[quits insert mode and goes back to Normal mode
Ctrl-r {reg}paste text from register
Ctrl-ninvoke Vim’s auto completion
Ctrl-pinvoke Vim’s auto completion

The ex command g

The ex command g is very useful for acting on lines that match a pattern. You can use it with the d command to delete all lines that contain a particular pattern.

:g/pattern/d

References

Search

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:09] In normal mode you can search forwards by pressing / then typing your search pattern. Type Gn to jump to the first match, or GN to jump to the last. Search backwards by pressing ? then typing your search pattern.

cats and dogs dogs and cats people and cats

  • Search under cursor

    You can search for the current word under the cursor by using the * and # commands in normal mode.

  • Reinsert substituted text

    Using the & you can reinsert the text matched in a substitution run the following command to see the effect: :%s/cats/"&"/g

  • Substitute capture groups

    You can dictate capture groups using escaped brackets in a search. They can then be accessed in the replacement using escaped numbers. :%s/\(\w\) and /\1 but not/g

  • History of past searches

    You search for various keywords in your code. After a while you want to search for some of those keywords again but you don’t remember them exactly. No worries. Just press q/ and you’ll open a small window at the bottom containing your searches. Navigate with jk and press Enter to repeat the selected search. Or just close that window with :q

  • s and type two characters to jump forward to the nearest match

    • if the things I want to jump to is fairly close to where the cursor is I’ll use evil-snipe (s and S). If it’s far away or in another window, I’ll use Avy (gs SPC)
    • if you want to jump to other matches use ; and ,

Search Pattern

PatternDescription
\<represents the beginning of a word
\>represents the end of a word
  • Findind duplicate words: \(\<\w\+\>\)\_s*\<\1\>

    • \< word beginning
    • \w word character
    • \+ one or more word characters
    • \> word end
    • \_s* any amount of whitespaces
    • \1 uses the same pattern as the first group
  • Finding this or that

    • \| to search for something or something else
  • Finding two words in either order

    • \& separates alternates e.g. .*red\&.*blue will match either red or blue in any order.

Macros

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:09] You record your actions into a register and play those actions back.

  • press qa to start recording your actions into register a
  • perform some actions that you want repeated
  • you press @a to playback the contents of regiter a
  • you could press 10@@ to repeat the playback for 10 times

G Commands

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:09] The global command :g is very useful. [range]g/pattern/cmd is the template for the g ex-command

Special list of G commands

commanddescription
gfopen file under cursor
g;traverse forward through the change list
g,traverse backward through the change list
gigo back to last insert position
gashow char codes for char under cursor
g&repeat last :s on all lines (last replace command)
gvrepeat last visual selection
gh, gj, gk, glmakes visual movements instead of logical
:g!/pattern/ddelete all lines that do not match a pattern
:g/^\s*$/ddelete all blank lines
:g/pattern/t$copy all lines matching a pattern to end of file
:g/pattern/m$move all lines matching a pattern to end of file
:g/pattern/y Acopy all lines matching a pattern to register ‘a’

Antipatterns

If you are pressing the same key more than twice, you’re doing it wrong

  • You should either prefix a command with the number of times you want to repeat

it or look for a shorter command which does the same thing (there always is).

Moving one line at a time

  • use relative line numbers instead. Using relative line numbers will tell you how

many lines above and below the cursor the other lines are. Knowing that you can then use RELATIVE_NUMBER + j/k to jump straight to that line.

  • I removed all line numbers from Doom.
  • / to search for a word is usually faster than moving the cursor.
  • to move up/down multiple lines I then use CTRL+u and CTRL+d.

Moving sideways one character at a time

  • use f to move to a particular character (forward) and t to move to place right before a character (forward)
  • use F and T to move backwards

Deleting text before inserting new text

Spending too much time in insert mode

Using / to search for the word under cursor

  • Instead use * (to search forward) and # (to search backward)

Using macros for simple replacements

  • Many people record a macro to change multiple lines when they could be using a

RegEx find and replace instead

  • To invert a function’s argument’s order throughout all of a file’s call, you could use:
    • :%s/myfun(\(.*\),\(.*\))/myfun(\2,\1)/g

Daily Tricks - from Twitters

[2023-06-15 Thu 16:09] Find here a list of tips from Vim Daily Tips and Vim Tricks twitter profiles.

  1. combine d, c, or y with / to operate on text up until a pattern match:

    • d/foo delete forward untill foo
    • c/\d change forward until the next number
  2. navigate more efficiently by using jumps

    • ctrl-o moves backwards through the jump list
    • ctrl-i moves forwards through the jump list
  3. removes lines matching a pattern with the g command

    • :g/pattern/d remove lines matching pattern
    • :g!/pattern/d remove lines that do NOT match
  4. delete without overwriting your last yank

    • use the black hole register `_`
    • "_daw delete a word
    1. the 0 register will contain your most recent yank
      • "0p put the yanked word before a delete
  5. use 10@a to play the macro saved in register a 10 times

  6. use ea to append to the end of the current word

  7. use ( and ) to jump to the beginning and end of sentences

  8. scroll current line to

    • zt scroll to top
    • zb scroll to bottom
    • zz scroll to center
  9. Use e to move to the end of the next word, and ge to the end of the previous word

  10. Use `` to jump to snap back to where you were before your last jump.

  11. Use gf to jump to the file name under the cursor
