Sends an EOF marker, which (unless disabled by an option) closes the current shell (equivalent to the command exit). (Only if there is no text on the current line) If there is text on the current line, deletes the current character (then equivalent to the key Delete). Ctrl+e : moves the cursor to the line end (equivalent to the key End).
Command-line or Cmdline mode – provides a single line input at the bottom of the Vim window. Commands (beginning with :) and some other keys for specific actions (including pattern search and the filter command) activate this mode. On completion of the command, Vim returns to the previous mode. [38] [33]: 12
A blank line usually refers to a line containing zero characters (not counting any end-of-line characters); though it may also refer to any line that does not contain any visible characters (consisting only of whitespace). Some tools that operate on text files (e.g., editors) provide a mechanism to reference lines by their line number.
It is analogous to the Unix rm command and to the Stratus OpenVOS delete_file and delete_dircommands. [5] DEC RT-11, [6] OS/8, [7] RSX-11, [8] and OpenVMS [9] also provide the delete command which can be contracted to del. AmigaDOS [10] and TSC FLEX [11] provide a delete command as well. The erase command is supported by Tim Paterson's SCP 86 ...
In his 2008 review of the 7th edition for Dr. Dobb's Journal, author Mike Riley compared the coverage afforded by the book to a combination of the Vim online documentation and O'Reilly's vi Editor Pocket Reference. While noting that the book "continues to fulfill an apparent market need," he did not find the book appropriate for more advanced ...
If n is 3, clear entire screen and delete all lines saved in the scrollback buffer (this feature was added for xterm and is supported by other terminal applications). CSI n K EL: Erase in Line Erases part of the line. If n is 0 (or missing), clear from cursor to the end of the line. If n is 1, clear from cursor to beginning of the line.
A newline character sequence typically moves the render output location to the beginning of the next line. If one follows text, it does not actually result in whitespace. But, two sequential newline sequences between text blocks results in a blank line between the blocks. The height of the blank line varies by application.
Some file managers implement a TUI (here: Midnight Commander) Vim is a very widely used TUI text editor. In computing, text-based user interfaces (TUI) (alternately terminal user interfaces, to reflect a dependence upon the properties of computer terminals and not just text), is a retronym describing a type of user interface (UI) common as an early form of human–computer interaction, before ...
