:ggdGwq (please don't do this)

VIM Golf.... Same outcome, fewer strokes:

%d|wq

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 10 months ago

you can replace wq with x

:%d|x

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

Only in Vim, not in Vi.

E492: Not an editor command: ggdGwq

[-] ignotum@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

I use Vim daily, and i have absolutely no clue what that command would do, what would it do? Delete the document, save and quit?

[-] filiberto_kunstlinger@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

exactly.

gg -> go to top of document

d -> delete (actually, it's cut, but it destroys the mnemonic)

G -> here is a modifier to "d" and tells it do "delete until end of document"

w -> write current state of buffer to disk

q -> exit program

[-] backhdlp@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 10 months ago

Actually not, binds and commands aren't the same. ggdG only works as a series of inputs, while wq only works as a command (with the colon).

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Exactly. The colon needs to be just before the w, not at the front of the sequence...

[-] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

And while you're at it, throw an ESC in there at the beginning, will ya?

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

If you want to cover every case (mode), indeed. ๐Ÿ˜Š

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 10 months ago

yeah, I screwed it up

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

gg

Huh.. I always just used :1

ggdGZZ

This actually does what you intend to do. On nvim atleast.
