Linux - Vim editors

so basically into our previous video we

have discussed about our nano editors

and we have seen how we can edit the

file by using the Nano editor now let us

begin with your VI liters so VI editors

are improving eaters and that's the

reason they are also called as VI m

quite as we are deterred which is in

improved mode so generally is this

improved module of your VI liters so

this VI readers also we have since we

are using the Linux operating system but

they are again improved with some

certain features into the next letter

operating systems

now here this VI reader is again we have

in different flavors of your UNIX as

well as in Linux operating systems this

VR Deiters has a same concept what we

have into the Nano as well as into other

editors but using this particular we are

readers is bit different because we are

going to move into the file and using

certain tools and the commands which we

will see how we are going to do it the

next we have the speciality of VR eater

it uses very few resources to edit a

file so the consumption of resources

into it are very less the tools are

completely and built into the VI editor

itself so we do not have to call any of

your source files or any of the

resources to process those particular

source files or the methods the next we

have that is very friendly editors like

you have into the Linux operating system

they were called as IDI or e.x editors

into the older versions of your units so

this particular we are eaters is more

friendly than this to editors so again

if I'm talking the VR details the

editors can be used in two different

ways this can be used for different

works like file editing of file in a

different modes now here if I'm talking

about VI file name if you define a via

file name it will open a file into a

video editor or if suppose I haven't

created a new firm so automatically if

you give a VI space filename

automatically it will also create a new

file for you and you can edit a file and

save it the next we have that is VI

space - capital R and the new file name

now what it will do it will start your

file

read only more now if you do not want to

edit anything into a file or you do not

want to use a particular file for any of

your editing purpose you can just read

the file by using VI space hyphen r

because in VR dieter's it might happen

for the beginners like if they are going

to use a file or open a file and they

might use some keys or my mistake and

what it will do it will affect your

further because you are going to add

those characters in to defer so if I do

not want to modify it or if I do not

want to take any risk to open my edit

particular file which I have created and

we will tend to read only we can go for

VI space - ah the last one we have that

this V of following again if I am going

to see what are the files and really we

have created or which are the first we

have so we can use view and the file

name so it will show me all the existing

files into my command mode into the via

Deiters now what is this command mode

what I'm talking about the command mode

is as we are going to open a file into

the V inators we have two different

modes called as a command mode and the

insertion mode what they means now if I

am using the V inator if I directly open

a file by default that we are deterred

will be in a mode called as a command

mode means it is going to accept only

the commands not your text not your data

now if I want to add the data or

detection to differ I need to move into

the insertion mode for moving into the

insertion mode we have to press I or

insert key once you press the insert key

below the line of your file you will be

able to see the insert tab that means

you are in true insertion mode and you

can create your file you can add the

data into the file and for that you have

to again move into the command mode for

saving the file by pressing the Escape

key once you press the Escape key you

will be out into the command mode and

then you can save the file by using some

certain commands so what are the

commands generally which we are going to

use that we are going to see into our

video so let us move into the terminal

and use the via dator for editing the

file so into our layer station we have

edited the file by using the Nano

so I'll be using VI goat for the same

vowel so for opening a file are using

Livia agate or either you can use VI or

VI m the same as we used in animal

eaters then we need to define the file

name now my file name is fruit once you

move into the fruits you will show you

the number of line you have number of

character you have your cursor is on

which line and which column and showing

you all the features as of now so here

this is the you know V editor page and

you can find there is nothing written

over here just it is showing you the

number of line when you have started

with the file now I just want to you

know insert something if I press any key

it won't insert because this is into the

command line more so when you start a VI

Deeter by default it will be no command

line mode if I want to insert anything

into this file I need to press it or I

or insert key so once I press that you

can see it shows you insert over here

that means now you're in insertion more

and you can add whatever you want I'll

just fill up this blank space I want to

add the cherry and a dragon fruit right

so I have added two lines into it so

this is how generally we add the lines

now if suppose I want to copy a line now

for example I want to copy this mango so

for coughing this mango I'll just take

my course around the mango and then I'll

copy this now for copying a particular

file what you will be doing is I'll just

add our open a particular file here so

either we can go into the it is really

we have

you get it or generally what we can do

is we can even start with the different

terminals and the different terminal we

can go for G at it and hits it and I'll

just keep it aside but I can show you

the you know the keys which I'll be

using for performing tasks on my VI

heaters so ready force what I'm going to

do is I'm going to copy a line so for

copying a line you just have you know

key letters you need to press double

time that's twice why why instruments

yanked yang Mis you will be keeping this

fuzz hanging till you are going to pace

it so this is for copy a single line so

when you are going to copy keep your

cursor on the initial word of the line

or and then just press Y Y and that

should be in a command line mode you

should not write into the insertion mode

otherwise it will be typed into the file

itself then where I want to paste it

just we need to press P so it will paste

your line wherever you want to then if I

want to copy multiple lines so for

example I want to copy four lines I'll

use for YY so it will copy four lines

starting from two the initial line right

from where your cursor is the cursor

position right

and for pasting it again we will be

having B so let us check how we can do

this so here I'm on the world of mango

and I just want to copy this line okay

so for that I'll press escape to come

out of the installation more so you can

find now here

no insertion is written now I want to

copy this so I'll press white blue white

and then escape I that is for insertion

more or directly you can press the

insert key and come wherever you require

no and wherever you want to paste it so

just paste it by moving again into the

command line more and press P so you can

see this is pasted here same way if I

want to copy three lines or four lines

writing from the Apple so I will move

into the insertion more and more the

first line again I'll copy four lines

for example for y what so force that

again I'll come into the insertion mode

I'll come on the last line and hit enter

and I am going to paste it so you can

see at a time I have wasted four more

lines so this is how we can see how we

paste the lines same thing if I want to

delete a line so for deleting online

again we have D D or deleting a single

line

same way for deleting three or four

lines for the have to add those numbers

in front of your daily

all right so let us delete these four

lines which we have added so for that

escape DD if I do that build early only

one if I use skate 3 in DD so it will

delete three of the lines at a time so k

DD we can use for deleting line so this

is we have seen how we can delete your

lines right same way if I want to cut a

line and paste it somewhere so if I want

to more cut we can say so for that we

have C C so forth but a single line same

way for multiple line will have to CC

for two lines right cut two lines from

the person to person position and for

pasting it again we have the same we can

use P to paste

right so here I am going to come and

again moving into the insertion mode so

sudden for navigating I have to move

into the insertion mode so if I want to

cut just this sweet lamb so what I can

do is gain L come into the come on mode

and I'll press CC and now it you can see

it has been cut and now if I want to

insert it again I will come into the

last line and I'll paste by using P

Electra right so it has pin paste it's

same way if I want to cut multiple lines

like you know I want to cut this line

starting from blueberry till dragon so

this is one two three four and five

lines so I will use insertion more come

out of insertion more comments 5-cc so

it has cut these fly lines and now I

want to paste it here itself escape so

you can see the spin paste food is how

we can copy and peace now there are many

more things you have now if I want to

charge a particular word wherever it is

written so for that

just add one more here it is up okay so

twice I have used Apple now whenever you

want to find something into your via

teachers what you will be using you will

just use front slash and the word you

want to find so for example I want to

find Apple so I'll just use front slash

and Apple that - it should be in a

command line just search for Apple

search train me the number of times that

means is present in this particular file

right so my cursor will move to the you

know next file when I press n so n for

searching the next word right so go on

continue pressing n of 0 have given the

search command automatically it will

take you to the top of the page and will

search into the whole document so for

multiple search search will go on

pressing and so that is next search the

next word right now same thing if I want

to check for the you know number of line

I have like you know I have added

multiple lines now if I want to check

number of lines I have used so I can

also set the line numbers here by giving

the command : set and um B number so it

will show me in to thee the number of

lines I have used look this particular

file so these are some of the commands

now again if I want to save the contents

what exactly I have added into it so I

will be using : WQ : WQ means right and

quit again if I want to add like you

know I do not want to save or make any

changes to this file I will be using : q

and exclamation sign so whatever the

changes I have made into this file will

be flushed out so right now I want to

save it so I'll be using control that is

: W Q and hit enter

so now I can check by using the cat

command as well so this file will show

you whatever the changes I have done

here

right so chilly and dragon ah how about

it just now so this is how generally you

use DV editor there are many things into

the V editor you can use you know the

minor features there are many parameters

we use with the manner into this order

some of it correct so we have seen like

there are many things what we can do in

to thee we are little like we can find a

different number no words by using n we

can cut and paste multiple lines over

here that the facilities you know the

advanced features we have into thee V

editors so this is about the editing of

well so into the next videos or coming

videos I am going to explore more your

Linux operating system so keep watching
