Run the same command on a selection of lines, or a set of files.\n\nDiscover the \"very magic\" switch, which makes Vims regular expression syntax more like Perls.

All without installing a single plugin!\n\nYoull learn how to navigate text documents as fast as the eye moves--with only a few keystrokes. Jump from a method call to its definition with a single command. Use Vims jumplist, so that you can always follow the breadcrumb trail back to the file you were working on before.
