vimtutor - the Vim tutor
vimtutor [language]
Vimtutor starts the Vim tutor. It copies
the tutor file first, so that it can be modified without changing the original
file.
The Vimtutor is useful for people that want to learn their first Vim
commands.
The optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language,
like "it" or "es". If the [language] argument is missing, the language of
the current locale will be used. If a tutor in this language is available,
it will be used. Otherwise the English version will be used.
Vim is always
started in Vi compatible mode.
- /usr/share/vim/vim64/tutor/tutor[.language]
- The Vimtutor text file(s).
- /usr/share/vim/vim64/tutor/tutor.vim
- The Vim script
used to copy the Vimtutor text file.
The Vimtutor was originally written
for Vi by Michael C. Pierce and Robert K. Ware, Colorado School of Mines
using ideas supplied by Charles Smith, Colorado State University. E-mail:
bware@mines.colorado.edu.
It was modified for Vim by Bram Moolenaar. For the names of the translators
see the tutor files.
