Vim Cheat Sheat for Programmers by Michael Pohoreski (michael.peopleofhonoronly.com)

I really like how this is more than just a table of vim commands. There is actually a visual overlay of commands over a QWERTY keyboard. Useful and perhaps very helpful for touch typists.

Also, in case anyone reading here is a mechanical keyboard enthusiast, there is a "VIM" add-on to the "SA Green Screen" custom keyset now on Massdrop: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-admgc-sa-green-scree...

Thanks a lot for the hard work.

Maybe it's a bit too much to ask, but could you make a version for the dvorak keylayout? I would have done it myself but time does notlet me.

Anyways, thanks again for the nice work!

Thank you, I am going to use this as my wallpaper for a bit!

The ones that I find most useful as a programmer are the text object commands. These go like <action>i<object_name> for "inside" delims and <action>a<object_name> for "around" (including delims>. The object name is very often a particular delimiter.

So: want to yank what's inside some html tags? yit want to change inside round parens? ci( Want to delete the {-delimited block? da} (or da{}. likewise, yi' or ca" or whatever all do what you would expect.

It's incredibly useful for a programmer because you don't need to move to the part of the line you want to operate on, so you can do like yypci" to copy the current line and edit what's inside double quotes.

Vimcasts.org and "Practical vim" are good sources for this sort of thing.

Wow, this was created with Excel, and the source is included! Thus, anyone can customize the cheatsheet with Excel and include personal hotkeys and mapping. For example, I have my ctrl-h and ctrl-j mapped to up/down arrow. Anyway, thank you for including the source.

i need a cheatsheet to read this cheatsheet - it's really hard to figure out to how read this.

Awesome!
