One thing I love about VIM is that even though it does many things, it is learnable and has direction and opinion. It also leverages your mastery of unix, and gives you an easy system to assign sensible hotkeys to things you need. For all its noteriety, it's ultimately straight forward. A wonderful tool, anything you learn about it pays back dividends. Almost no meaningless functions. Also, really nice to learn about the history of its development :) Great talk.
Reasons I love Vim: - It made me love Unix - It helped me make money as a translator. - It made me look cool when I was able to sort a giant HTML file with many tags before the sort key in each line. - It helps me work faster and cleaner every day. - It pointed me the way to programming because of Vim script. - It's mainly a Dutch product!
It would be cooler if the newer non-Vi-compatible options were in Dutch :) (E.g. instead of "spell" why not something like "rektskrijven" (I'm just guessing about that from German "rechtschreiben")?)
There is actually an official (developed by JetBrains) plugin for Intellij IDEA and other JetBrains' IDEs called IdeaVIM. It's an absolutely fantastic implementation - I use on a daily basis to develop Java. This combo, in my opinion, gives you the best of both worlds!
@@lsagar they really don't I love intellij, but VIM with some plugins and custom vimrc is just heaven. Must plugins only allow basic commands, and no customization which is the essence of VIM.
I suspected the author was Dutch when I ran the program for the first time in 2001-2003 and read the Uganda message. Never bothered confirming that, but now I've heard him and I know.

Rest in peace dear Bram and thank you for everything you have done for us.

I use probably less than 5% of vim features, yet - I love it !! Thanks for the editor!
I'm scared of typing due to vim😓 will take lot of time to overcome this
You'd probably be fine with vi. vim is a clone of vi with many added features.
RIP from this emacs (and occasional vim) user. I’ve the greatest respect for Bram. What a hero.
Nice presentation. Love Vim. I use Vim almost everyday to write programs for cancer research.
Thank you for all of your hard work on making such a crucial tool!
RIP Bram Moolenaar but your product VIM will go on living and spreading your Genius creativity.
ThanQ Bram for this wonderful program. It is a life changing software.
Thank you Bram, for the Wonderful program! And all your contributions!
Here's to the next 25 years! 🍻

Those plugins come nowhere near VIM

May your soul rest in peace, dear Bram. You will be missed forever and always.

I literally can't remember life before i learned vim
The notepad flashbacks hurt so much
Greetings from Berlin. :-)
Thank your for this great software.
My 50MB Quantum LPS still works! I bought it in 1992
RIP Bram...
Rest in peace

Oh shut up in watching this from a framebuffer
The God Himself. :)
Someone may need floating point in editor.
But who needs hyperbolic functions in editor?? )))
vim 牛逼!
When this was presented in 2016, Bram didn't even take NeoVim seriously enough to mention it even though it was on his slide.
:wq
I love vim. Thanks for creating it Bram. RIP. ZZ
