If there are N characters in your file, then the insertion point can be placed at N + 1 positions: in-between two adjacent characters, or before the first character, or after the last character. And this makes sense: anything you type is inserted at the insertion point. All rational text editors (and word processors) work this way. > > But not vi/vim. It only lets you place your cursor *on* a character, not *in-between* characters. That’s why you need two separate insertion commands, insert-before and insert-after. And one of those has the interesting side effect where, if you exit insertion mode without inserting anything, it doesn’t put you back in the same position as before. Why? > > As to why you need insertion commands at all, that’s another thing... > -- > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list I personally love vim. But its clearly an acquired taste. When you get good at it its pretty amazing -- and no mouse. The other thing about vim is that it is on every linux system, so you don't have to load your editor if you are ssh-ing to some machine -- Joel Goldstick http://joelgoldstick.com/blog http://cc-baseballstats.info/stats/birthdays
