I've always used the Vim extension for VS Code. I did a reinstall of the 
Pi's OS and it comes with Geany. After a little searching I found Geany 
has a variety of plugins and vim is one of them. The developer says he 
doesn't use Vim itself so it might be a little strange but so far it works 
fine for me. I don't use some of the more exotic Vim stuff but the basics 
are all there, except :q. He couldn't find a way to get Geany to exit. :w 
works.

Unfortunately gvim (vim-gtk) doesn't work on a Pi. It became second nature 
so I didn't realize I was using the mouse to move the cursor as much as I 
do although I don't use the visual mode.
