How to Configure VIM to be 💪Powerful💪 and 💎Beautiful💎 with .vimrc 

Luke smith dot files are everywhere haha

at 9:20, you should be able to go to whatever line you want with gg or G. No subtraction needed. Imo it's easier to have the absolute values for line number, but you do you. Very useful video though, thanks!

Would be cool to have both relative and absolute line numbers simultaneously. One for fast jumping via J/K and another one for fast jumping with :NUMBER and also for keeping track and telling in which line the bug is without moving cursor there. I've seen it done with plugins, but native capability would be useful.

I use the vim extension for VScode and I was just watching this oit of curiosity but Yanking directly into the clipboard.. I feel such an NPC for not thinking about that. Ya always got a video that helps me out massively, MO.

New subscriber here and I appreciate your tutorials here. You mention your github page at the end of the video. Mind posting a link in the show notes?

I can just enter insert mode and press Ctrl+Shift+V to paste from clipboard, like you would on a terminal.

thanks man, enjoying your channel.

Thanks for sharing, much appreciated :)

Capital S is substitute line (delete the line and enter insert mode). Lower-case is substitute character (delete the character and enter insert mode). I don't use it much personally. I suppose if for whatever reason you found yourself replacing lines wholesale a lot then it'd be useful but I'd think that's pretty unusual. Whether I'm writing unstructured text or programming, rarely do I need to delete a line and start over, and if I do that's solvable with a quick 0C. Not the most horrible thing in the world. Edit: I had no idea S-Insert would paste from the system clipboard. I was always using "+p or "*p . Then I tried it, cringed and said "oh god that's awful, he's right, he's so right" and added that map. Thanks! :D When it comes to yanking to the system clipboard, why not try: set clipboard=unnamed,unnamedplus unnamedplus sends all yank, delete, change, and put operations to the X11 system clipboard (instead of "* ). If you do both like I have, then it'll yank, delete, etc to "* as well, so it's portable to MacOS and Windows. :)

Love your content

"nocompatible" doesn't do anything on Linux as it gets automatically set if you have a .vimrc file and start vim as "vim" (and not as "vi").

I hope no one hacks me and steals my .vimrc

How can I remap CAPS LOCK to not do anything in .vimrc? is it possible?

What colorscheme are you using here?

Fonts are too small in the video to see on mobile.

Where can I download this vimrc file?

Zoom in my dude

should have zoomed in a little

this video is maybe worth something but font are too small and unreadable with bad colorscheme!
