Vim cheatsheet

The cheat sheet covers Vim 8.0 essentials for exiting, editing, clipboard use, searching, navigation, and replacing text.
Vim uses modal editing, with separate normal, insert, visual, and command-line interactions.
Common ways to leave insert mode include pressing Esc or the listed exit key.
Editing shortcuts include appending, inserting, opening new lines, deleting and inserting, replacing characters, and undo/redo.
Clipboard actions include cut/delete line, yank/copy line, paste before or after, and copying to or pasting from the system clipboard.
Visual mode supports character, line, and block selection, with delete, replace, and yank operations on the selected text.
A whole-document replacement example is shown with :%s/foo/bar/g.
Movement commands cover characters, words, line start/end, document start/end, and direct jumps to specific line numbers.
Screen-position commands let you center a line, move it to the top or bottom, or jump to the top, middle, or bottom of the window.
Search navigation includes moving to the next or previous match, and jumping to the next or previous whole-word match under the cursor.
