Re: [Nolug] A "keystroke learn" key in vim?

Yes, using maps. :map to see your current maps. Check out the chapter on

You could probably do some stuff with macros as well.

The best thing about eve was block copy. Once i learned how to do that in
vim, it was all good. (we have vim installed on our VMS boxes)
