Vim Reference Guide book announcement

Hello!

I am pleased to announce my twelfth ebook Vim Reference Guide. This is intended as a concise learning resource for beginner to intermediate level Vim users. It has more in common with cheatsheets than a typical text book. Topics like Regular Expressions and Macros have more detailed explanations and examples due to their complexity. I hope this guide would make it much easier for you to discover Vim features and learning resources than my own blundering experience.

Release offers🔗

To celebrate the release, Vim Reference Guide is FREE to download till 31-Mar-2022. You can still pay if you wish ;)

Some of my ebooks and bundles are on sale as well till 31-Mar-2022:

JavaScript RegExp is FREE
All books bundle is $8 (normal price $24) - all my 12 programming ebooks
Learn by example Python bundle is $3 (normal price $12) - Python intro, regex and projects
Magical one-liners bundle is $3 (normal price $12) - grep, sed, awk, perl and ruby one-liners

Video playlist🔗

I'm currently creating short 1-3 minute videos highlighting handy Vim features.

I also made a 3.5 minute video about the guide:

Vim prank🔗

Did you know that Vim has an easy mode? It can be rather hard to use for those already familiar with Vim modes. I wrote a blog post about this mode, which was interesting enough to reach front page of Hacker News!
