WHAT?
=====

Just documenting the things about vim I want to remember, find interesting or 
want to remember myself.


Tips
====



Window (Vertical Split) 
-----------------------

- Help for windows: `:h^w<cr>`
- Create one: `:vsplit<cr>`
- Close a window: `^wc`
- Resize a vertical window:
  - 1 column: `^w <` OR `^w >`
  - 5 columns: `5^w <` OR `5^w >`
  - make them equal: `^w =`


Column Guide
------------

To make sure your code/text stays within a certain width:

- Set guide column: `:set colorcolumn=81<cr>
- Set guide colour: `:highlight ColorColumn ctermbg=59<cr>`

- Jump to column 80: `80|`


Spelling
--------

Start spell check: `:set spell<cr>`
Next misspelling: `]s`
Previous misspelling: `[s`
Show suggestion: `z=`
