Vim was created in 1991 by Bram Moolenaar, and is an open source screen-based text editor. The code was originally derived from the Stevie Amiga editor. Unlike many screen-based text editors, Vim can be used on any computer and is completely free. It is considered an improved version of Bill Joy's vi editor. It is a powerful screen-based text editor for many different purposes.
Vim is compatible with Unicode and supports multiple languages. Its integrated development environment-like features include syntax highlighting, tabbed windows, and a file browser. It also supports plugins and a graphical user interface. It also supports the use of terminals, multi-language support, and ftplugins. This allows for easier file overview. The following sections describe how to access these features. If you'd like to download a copy of the latest version of the editor, follow the instructions on the download page.
In Vim, there are two basic modes: easy and restricted. Using the first one allows you to edit a text file without worrying about syntax. The second mode, last-line mode, is reserved for editing. When you're in insert mode, you can type anything you want. If you want to run Vim in a restrictive mode, you can enter it by typing "-h". It gives you a help message.
